Forgive me if my ignorance is obvious...
Are there any implications to non-dirent nodes?  Shouldn't this speed
up the GC, mount time for any node?  If not then the version field for
non-dirent nodes is utterly wasted, right?  If the version field is
wasted for all non-dirent nodes (in other words, most nodes) then it
seems like a bad idea to add a WORD or DWORD to each node. If there is
a way to make version field only apply to dirent nodes then it would
be much better, of course that sounds ugly without even thinking it
through too far.
