Applied the patch, and the ooops disappeared.

arlad -n --debug=alm produces the following output:

  libgcc_s.so.1 must be installed for pthread_cancel to work

(I configured arla with --with-pthreads). I do have a file
/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 installed, so this error message seems strange.

Accesses to /afs fail with No such device, e.g,

  nisse at maskros:~$ ls /afs
  ls: /afs: No such device

Is there any more appropriate error code that could be returned?
ENODEV made me suspect the nnpfs module, which at the moment seems to
be innocent.

What should I try next?
