On the web server (broken glusterfsd) it was using hardened specs (with stack protection and position independent executable options). This is on x86. I've just recompiled it using vanilla specs on the web server, having noticed another more subtle data truncation bug with the client. Having tried connecting with another client on the network, I'm successfully able to mount the volumes from the webserver without issues. I'll do some further investigations, but it seems the hardened toolchain in Gentoo would be a prime culprit here. Regards, -- Stuart Longland (aka Redhatter) .'''.
