Umm.. this is weird.. I will take a look at this on your setup..

Hmm.. it looks like some unaligned accesses may have crept into CVS head
causing cp/other programs to crash when using pvfs2..? Pete, did
you noticed anything that went in recently that may cause unaligned access 
violations?
BTW: Are there any tools for detecting this sort of thing? does valgrind
on opteron have an unaligned memory access plugin or something?
I will take a look at it and see if I can reproduce it...
Thanks,
Murali
