turns out this was mostly a server problem - the cell's server was
out to lunch.  

However, afsd just died rather than, say, hanging & giving messages
like these from a linux client...

afs: Lost contact with file server 207.75.164.4 in cell internet2.edu (all multi-homed ip addresses down for the server)
afs: Lost contact with volume location server 207.75.164.4 in cell internet2.edu

I'm running OS X 10.4.4.

The server (the solitary file & db server for the cell), was (gack)
1.2.8 on red hat 7.3.  I've just upgraded it to 1.2.13.  I include this
info not because i hope to get help with my crash on 1.2.8 but in case  
it tickles any thoughts about server bugs that were fixed since then.

thanks
