The panic string:

>>> [40084.003455] openafs: Can't init cache with inode numbers when complex inodes are in use

That comes up when the cache manager receives a pioctl for initializing
a cache file by number, when the cache manager is running an OpenAFS
version that only initializes cache files by path.

While it is possible something in the build process got confused as to
which interface afsd should use, it wouldn't break "sometimes" in that
case; this is a compile-time behavior. And in any case, 1.5.78 is not
interesting.
