Thanks for the detailed instructions.  I never even knew mdb existed.

BTW:
process 17679 is the one writing the LONG file that seemed to 
initiate the deadlock.  I notice it is inside "FetchWholeEnchilada".

process 18421 is the one listed for the cmdebug entry for /afs:
the root directory of the whole AFS system and the cm entry with the
most waiters.
