The name service deadlock described on many occations was not really fixed
in both the stable and beta series until it was "rediscovered" in the last
beta. I have made the critical change in the stable package. Both series
are now up to date. Knock on wood. The problem is easily reproducible by
simply running examples/ThreadedSmbCrawler.java with 'smb://' on a big WAN
with 10 threads. Some of the threads will not finish. If you are running a
mildly efficient threaded crawler that starts at the 'smb://' or
'smb://workgroup/' level you will have this problem until you upgrade.

A program should be written to model the concepts of the task it
performs rather than the physical world or a process because this
maximizes the potential for it to be applied to tasks that are
conceptually similar and, more important, to tasks that have not
yet been conceived.
