It seems to be working ok for me. 

I do notice one problem. It appears that Arla treats PAG's differently than
transarc's AFS. If I do an su to root while logged in, with a token, I no
longer have the token, or the pag, in the su'd session:

Here is a transcript to show the problem:

---------
infinity(46)>tokens

Tokens held by the Cache Manager:

   --End of list--
infinity(47)>klist

Yes, I am using a mixture of transarc excutables and AFS, but only to
demonstrate the problem. Might be good if arla included a tokens executable.
Probably is easy enough to write, in fact, I believe I have the code lying
around somewhere to do it.
