[OpenAFS] Possible lockups on Linux 2.4.14

All,
Are there any suspected problems with the OpenAFS 1.2.2 client on newer
SMP kernels? I've run several kernels in the 2.4.14pre and release series
on a single-CPU box with no obvious AFS problems, but a dual PIII box is
giving me fits.
There are no clear indications of the pathology (either on-screen or in
the logs), but it periodically locks up during AFS access. When in this
state, the box can be pinged - but little else works, requiring a
pushbutton reset.
This machine had run 2.2.19 + OpenAFS 1.0.4 for months under heavy load,
so I'm reasonably sure it's not a hardware issue.
Any specific troubleshooting suggestions?
Steve
