It seems that the Appletalk code under Linux 1.3.8 is still broken.
Running an strace on atalkd (part of the netatalk package), I get:

socket(PF_???, DGRAM, 0) = 9
ioctl(9, SIOCSIFADDR,

<blank inserted for readability>

Kernel panic: skput:over: 001ca4e8:50

It looks like it bombs on the SIOCSIFADDR ioctl(). Other than that, I
don't have much information to give. netatalk can be found on
terminator.rs.itd.umich.edu in /unix/netatalk.
