I am confirming that the behaviour is the same as I reported earlier,
now tested on

FreeBSD xdat05 9.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE #0: Tue Jan  3 07:15:25 UTC 2012     root_at_obrian.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  i386

(for the record, iirc last I used Coda on FreeBSD at 7.x and it was shaky
but somewhat working which it is alas not now :( )

Hope you can investigate this (and make it behave! :)
