I've been seeing two problems for the little bit I've poked around.  I'm 
running arla-0.36.2 on my Debian amd64 unstable desktop and openafs 
1.2.11-3 on my Debian i386 testing server.  First is a segfault when 
doing `vos examine`.  Here's a gdb trace of the crash:

(gdb) run examine user.rufus

Next is a few times I've managed to write files into afs on my desktop 
that the appear to the desktop as perfectly fine, but when I open them 
on any other machine the file size is correct but it contains nothing 
but NULL (^@) characters.  After this happened twice I've temporarily 
stopped using afs from my desktop and have just resorted to scp'ing 
files around.  If I have some time I'll try to recreate and debug this 
error.
