[OpenAFS] Problems with 1.3.78 and 2.6.10

[Dr A V Le Blanc]

Recently I've been experimenting with Linux 1.6.10 and openafs 1.3.78.
I have compiled these using gcc 3.3.5, 3.0.4, and 2.95, always of
course using the same compiler for the kernel and for openafs.
I have run 'configure --with-afs-sysname=i386_linux26
--with-linux-kernel-headers=whatever', and I have had similar problems
on all three systems on which I have tried this: a file written into
AFS get created, but contains no data.  For example:

     $ ls -l harry fred
ls: fred: No such file or directory
-rw-------  1 root root 4301 Feb 16 09:58 harry
     $ cat harry >fred
     $ ls -l harry fred
-rw-------  1 root root    0 Feb 17 07:37 fred
-rw-------  1 root root 4301 Feb 16 09:58 harry
     $ fs lq .
Volume Name                   Quota      Used %Used   Partition
user.whatever                300000    187960   63%          9%

     I'm not seeing these problems with 1.2.13 on 2.4.28 or on
2.4.29, for that matter.  Has anyone else seen this?
