3310_20080516b.patch: my latest codes
*Question*: When updating a block (i.e. updating generation stamp and block
length), what happens if a reader tries to read the block? I guess the reader
should get an exception. However, how to tells whether a block is being
updated?

> In order to support file append, a GenerationStamp is associated with each
> block. Lease recovery will be performed when there is a possibility that the
> replicas of a block in a lease may have different GenerationStamp values.
