Springer's 'terms of use' for the 'accepted manuscript' version include forbidding sharing the file—say from the arXiv—with others (paragraph 5 is essentially fair use provisions and quoting in an academic context), and even the *authors* are forbidden from making any changes whatsoever to the accepted manuscript at any later date.
