I noticed the same thing and in my case it was due to the switch from  
asun-netatalk to netatalk.  According to the comments the switch was  
made because the asun-netatalk patches were all incorporated into  
netatalk.  I looked and couldn't find anything that was missed, but  
when I pulled up an old version of asun-netatalk source and rebuilt  
it, everything started working again for me.  Unfortunately the old  
asun-netatalk has been removed from the packages system.
