[Pvfs2-developers] server side memory problems in trunk?

I am having some problems with builds from the latest cvs head snapshot. 
    The server keeps crashing while I try to run an ACL test case, but I 
think that the problem is more fundamental than that.  If I watch the 
server in valgrind, this is a sampling of errors that come out when just 
mounting and performing an "ls -alh".  This is with a newly created 
storage space:

==7512== Invalid read of size 1
==7512==    at 0x401C8E7: strncmp (in
/usr/lib/valgrind/x86-linux/vgpreload_memcheck.so)
==7512==    by 0x80B1E3A: PINT_eattr_is_prefixed (pvfs2-server.h:133)

==7512== Invalid read of size 1

...

Anyone know what's going on?
