Yes, I had to get some internal names out. This is what went wrong:

-<fencedevice agent="fence_ilo" hostname="rnode1.foo.bar" login="reboot" name="node1" passwd="pass"/>
+<fencedevice agent="fence_ilo" hostname="rnode1.foo.bar" login="reboot" name="fence1" passwd="pass"/>
									       ^^^^^^

(same for node2/fence2).

# fence_node -vv node2
make_args(149): /cluster/fencedevices/fencedevice[@name="fence2"]/@*
make_args(156)

# fence_node -vv node2
fence_node(289): fullxpath: 0
fence_node(291): fullxpath: 1
make_args(149): /cluster/fencedevices/fencedevice[@name="fence2"]/@*
make_args(156)
Segmentation fault

make_args(156) is just before the strncmp. Trying to print out str
results in a segfault too (that's why it's missing from the output).

Nothing fancy here:

# uname -a
Linux vm41 2.6.30-1-amd64 #1 SMP Sun Jun 14 15:00:29 UTC 2009 x86_64
GNU/Linux
