Phil,
 
This information was posted recently in a post entitled "5.0 Platform Release &
Patches".  The hold was placed on both the 5.0 push and pull.  It was due to a
narrow window which in rare circumstances STORE wouldn't handle the receipt of a
bad status from a media write request.
 
There are two patches MPEHX40C (5.0 pull) and MPEHX40D (5.0 push) which address
this problem.  The patches will be included in those receiving the 5.0 General
Release package now expected to be shipped to all customers in the mid-to-late
February timeframe.
