I  have compiled 1.3.77 under AIX 5.1 and see the same problem. In my case the 
machine crashes after getting a token. It seems to work before.

I see this problem with all versions of OpenAFS I compiled. My workaround is 
always to use kernel extensions I got some times ago from Hartmut Reuter. 
They work. If this is an old problem, is any patch available somwhere?
