Looking at the rc4 afs_dynamic_auth during login with a debugger,
I believe that the problem is that the "returnto" function is
returning to address 0, which causes a SIGILL.
It looks like this function is hand-coded assembly language associated
with LWPs -- I presume it's a context switch.
Any ideas what might be going wrong here?
