What were you trying to do?

build emacs 19.30.70, but that's not important right now.  I was
trying to read and write files from AFS.

What went wrong?

files kept being corrupted.  one source file (created with tar) was
truncated near the end. - I restored it from the tarfile successfully.
Two other object files were corrupted in various unspecified ways.  At
that point, I wiped the object files, flushved the volume, and flushed
all the object files individually.

What should have happened?

I should be able to read and write files from AFS without it
corrupting my data.  If that sourcefile had not been from a tarfile,
there's no telling how much time and work I would have lost.  Not even
NFS was this bad.

Anything else you'd like to add?
