noticed this trying to read an nfs mounted fusecompress shadow-dir
mounted locally where the source was 11.04 and the client is 11.10 --
same error, I suspect the same cause -- this is a pretty unacceptable
risk here, that a minor-version upgrade would instantly render any
stored data as irretrievable!!  people need to be warned: can someone
call FOX news? :)

my 'fix' workaround to retrieve the data: find a prior version machine,
export your fusecompress shadow-dir and mount over nfs, then mount that
shadow-dir on the client under the previous version (ie 11.04) and
quickly backup your data.
