I am currently running with the patch which waits for a number fo 
seconds and retries the mount, and that appears t fix it. However I dont 
really like rnning a patched OS. How would I set about reporting this to 
Microsoft and getting it fixed, or getting the timeoutpatch commited ? 
Preferably both, as the timeout patch is generally a useful thing to 
have working for ZFS I think.
