Description of changes:

[0.4.7-12.el5_1.2]
- multipathd now creates its own ramfs cache for all callout programs.  This
  means that once multipathd starts, it never needs to access the underlying
  filesystem, so I won't hang if it looses access to the root device.
- Resolves: bz #428338

[0.4.7-12.el5_1.1]
- multipath.conf now has a new config option "bindings_file", which allows
  you to specify the bindings file location
- Resolves: bz #426287
