So, it turns out that actually reading the logs was clever. From this
I was able to figure ou that the problem was that
/afs/athena.mit.edu{,/system} being mode 777 (despite the fact that
they are in afs and that doesn;t actuall mean anything) was the
problem. I fixed this is the dev and athena cells (in dev I also had
to fix /afs/dev.mit.edu/system/sun4x_59 being mode 775), and that
seems to have solved the problem. *sigh*
