No, its not you, its me. I hd'ed the wrong file but the results are still
the same. Everything in my .AppleDouble directory looks similar. All of the
files originated on the Unix side:

The above was generated by netatalk 1.4b2 after I mounted the volume R/W
for the first time. While the above appears incorrect, the Mac's see the
right thing for some reason.

Messing around with it the past several hours I'm guessing type 'TEXT' and
creator 'UNIX' is the general-purpose tag instructing netatalk to use
AppleVolumes.system for the real information?

Recompiled without -DCRLF in the afpd Makefile. Only change I've noticed is
my .txt mapping to 'TEXT' 'ttxt' now works.
