The address family used by cman was changed some time ago because it conflicted
with bluetooth. So it could well be that you have a version of cman_tool that is
using PF 31 whereas cman is now using PF 30.

In short, yes you'll have to rebuild the tools.

Because several parts of this are still under development, I'm afraid you'll
have to expect occasional changes in API until things settle down. That should
be quite soon now though, I hope.
