I found another one.  Mounting a file in AFS in loopback (i.e. a CD
image) doesn't work anymore with 1.4.2fc3.  You can mount it and get
directory contents and access small files.  But any larger operations,
such as copying multiple large files out of the image fails.  Trying to
copy a file has resulted in several odd errors including "no such file
or device".  I get the following dmesg output:
