Re: loss of functionality from 1.6.0?

[Mark . Burgess]

THere should not be a difference, except perhaps in the locking.
It might be "too soon" to see the effect of this if you run one
immediately after the other. Try with -K to ignore locking.
This is probably just a misunderstanding that comes from the
more consistent locking policy in v2.
