Where by "rename", you mean get rid of the old field, and add a new one,
with a different name and completely different semantics, and not ever
try to claim they are the same field. Right? Right?
Not exactly: the current OpenAFS fileservers fill this field with one
which meant the file is on the local_disk residency. For backward
compatibility also the new field will contain a one for plain AFS files
in the fileserver's partition. But, of course, the meaning of all other
values is different to the old use.
