The revision headers we use have nothing to do with Sun's.  Plus, the
RCS number get bumped for several little things.  Some of the bigger
things are threads-safeness.

They're only available to folks with source licenses.  I did hack up
a set of prisitine Sun code one afternoon with an eye to posting it
as part of a NFS unit test program.  90% of the changes are to to make
things like xdr_long() take a long (64 bits) but only encode 32.

Also, I guess there were a number of places (xdr_enum(), for example)
that calls xdr_long() instead of xdr_int().  Maybe it made sense at the
time.
