Description of problem:
When using mkisofs to create HFS CDROMs the resulting CDROM might not
be shareable when mounted on a MacIntosh.  But sometimes it will be.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. mkisofs -hfs --netatalk -o image .
2.
3.
	

Actual Results:  Appears to work properly.
Volume not visible until CDROM mounted on a MacIntosh.
Often will be unshareable on Mac.


Expected Results:  The CDROM should always be shareable.


Additional info:

I have found the reason and created a patch which cures the problem.
The hfsdirent structure that is used to create the Desktop DB/DF files is not initialized properly.
Depending on what is on the stack the "flags" element will be initialized incorrectly resulting
in locked Desktop DB/DF files which causes the CDROM to be unshareable.
