Further logging tells me this:

============ start dht_layout_anomalies ============
last_stop = -1, prev_stop = -1
i = 0, down = 0, missing = 0, misc = 0, hole_cnt = 0, overlap_cnt = 0
layout->list[0].start = 0, layout->list[0].stop = 0, layout->list[0].err = -1
i = 1, down = 0, missing = 1, misc = 0, hole_cnt = 0, overlap_cnt = 0
layout->list[1].start = 0, layout->list[1].stop = 0x7ffffffe,
    layout->list[1].err = 0
=======> hole = 1, overlap = 0 <======
[dht-layout.c:599:dht_layout_normalize] 1-vndfs-dht: found anomalies 
    in /. holes=1 overlaps=0

I understand this code checks that the layout cover the whole space,
is that right? Then it must be upset that layout->list[0] does not cover
anything. Since the error is transcient, I susepct a race condition:
the layout would be filled after that check. Is it possible? Where is
the layout crafted?
