Section 18.25.4 says:
The server MUST NOT delete the directory entry if the reply from OPEN had the flag OPEN4_RESULT_PRESERVE_UNLINKED set.
It should say:
If the reply from OPEN had the flag OPEN4_RESULT_PRESERVE_UNLINKED set, The server MUST NOI delete the file contents until each directory entry is deleted and the file is no longer open.
Notes:
The existing second and third bullets are directly contradictory.
