[OpenAFS-devel] rx abort bug?

I'm running a client that's about a month old, built from cvs head.  I had
tokens, then I threw them away with kdestroy.  Next time I tried to talk to
the file server, the client apparently tried to re-use the rx connection,
because it sent an encrypted fs request.  The server sent back an rx abort
with code RXKAD_EXPIRED.

At this point, the client retried the call in the same way.  Shouldn't it
have closed the connection and opened a new, unauthenticated one?  Or should
the server have sent an rx challenge?  Is this a known bug?

I have no way to reproduce this.
