Yeah, this is the same issue.  The reason why the last part is correct is
that that information is coming from the VLDB instead of the volserver.
It looks like the volserver sometimes doesn't know that there's a RO.

I'm going to file a bug with the OpenAFS bug tracker.  It's not a big deal
for us, as I can still do what I needed to do by inverting the sense of my
query (look for ROs and then find their RWs via the RWrite part, which
appears to always be okay).
