Hi Paul,
Correct that was introduced in 3.0.0 but that isn't the problem. It seems,
like Brian points out, the client expects stat information to be returned
with the open (it shouldn't and we are checking on this). Since dCache
never returns stat information on the open, as far as I know, the client
gets confused and ges into a recovery mode that, in itself, is faulty. So,
there is no reason to finger-point dCache. Let us figure out of the fault
lies with the client.
