For the record, I've always had the problem that when tuning 
parameters are changed I sometimes have to wipe the cache partition. 
Same goes for reloading openafs, a reboot is usually required. This 
isn't a new problem at all, but it would be nice if at least the 
cache-partition-issue could be fixed (or at least detected so the user 
can get a nicer error message than segfault ;). Good test cases for 
reproducing this bug would help.
