Hello,
With many minor releases, we update the version of openafs for that 
minor release.  This new version then get's pushed out to the rest of 
the releases.
With SL 5.5 we updated openafs to 1.4.12, and we are about to push that 
version out to the rest of the SL5 releases.  It currently is in 
testing, and it has passed every updating test I could think to throw at 
it and it updated without any problems.

We plan on pushing this out on Monday - 12 July 2010

To test or update
