I understand vnodes quite well, could someone explain in detail the
differences between a gnode and a vnode, I assume DEC didn't just
make gratuitous changes.

If you can't supply the detail, could someone point me at any papers
on the topic or even mail me copies of the applicable ".h" files
so I can compare them with the vnode ".h" files?
