So, attach on snork tries to open /var/athena/attachtab as a file, and
gets confused:
$ /bin/athena/attach
Bad version number in /var/athena/attachtab
Operation aborted

If instead of /bin/athena/attach I try:

Ignoring obsolete attach.conf option: /bin/athena/aklog

---------- ---------- ---- ----
Could not open attachtab lock file: Permission denied.
Which seems more likely to work, if I were root. This prevents me
from logging into the machine; has no one else noticed this? (or
perhaps it's already been reported and I just missed it. shrug.)
