Subject: Problems with AFS and -current (i386 at least)?

I've been in the process of updating my i386 machine to -current, it
has been the late Sept snapshot with /usr/local from May. So far I've
recompiled the libraries and gnu and reinstalled them after building a
new kernel. Something seems to be causing AFS to behave VERY strangely.
If I try to do tcsh tab-completion on an AFS directory, tcsh seg faults
and dies. If I do an ls on an AFS directory, I get something like this:

(Note that the filesizes and dates are both very wrong) I have updated
ls to make sure it wasn't a problem with the old binary.
Has anybody else seen similar problems? I'm not sure if this is
i386-specific or not. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
