Subject: V5 VAXcluster PAK really required?

Can anyone verify if the VAXcluster PAK is really required before V5 will run
in a cluster? Our Vaxcluster PAK's aren't due until the "September time frame"
but we need to run one cluster node at V5A (mixed version cluster) now for
testing. The release notes say (in section 6.11) that if a Vaxcluster PAK is not
registered, only an error message is issued at system startup and "Vaxcluster
environment processing continues". However the cover letter appears to
contradict this. Anyone know for sure? 

Thanks in advance.
