But I didnt give up there, I tried on different systems... much to my
amusement it worked fine on my linux/m68k systems - amigas, macs and
aranym alike!  OK, I thought, maybe endianness, so I tried on my ppc ibook
running linux - same failures as on the PCs. So - something is done very
correct on m68k in regard to affs, that isnt done correct on other archs.
Anyone know what that might be?

If it's not the endianess then the other possible failure mode is
alignment: on m68k all types are at most aligned at a 2 byte boundary.
The structures in <linux/amigaffs.h> don't have any obvious alignment
problems, though.
