I patched cfs_vnodeops to avoid the panic, and now running Netscape 3
on an html file in a coda filesystem produces the following message
and then succeeds

	Nov 23 15:27:00 ti5 /kernel: CFS: Vnode operation vop_select called, but not def
 ined

mknod also similarly fails harmlessly:

ti5 root 1 /coda/project/coda #> mknod foo c 1 1
mknod: foo: Operation not supported

Nov 23 15:29:29 ti5 /kernel: CFS: Vnode operation vop_mknod called, but not defined
