[Help-gnu-arch] tla-1.2 error: Missing inode signature...

I've been slowly switching all of my projects from CVS over to arch,
and thusfar have been very pleased, but I've run into an error that I
can't seem to suss out.

The error is:
  Cannot verify reference tree integrity: you should remove and
  recreate this reference tree.

The situation is:

I upgraded my laptop from OpenBSD 3.5 to OpenBSD 3.6 by switching out
my old system drive (where my {archives} live), dropping in a new
drive and installing the OS and ports (including tla) from scratch,
then stuffing my old drive into the media bay and tar'ing my home dir
over from the old drive onto the new.  Before I shut down for the last
time using the old drive, I made sure that there were no un-committed
changes in any of my trees.

All seemed well, so I thought I'd just make sure that arch was happy.
I cd'ed into one of my many working trees and did:

  tla changes --diffs

Instead of seeing no output (as I expected), I got this error,
followed by some output that seems to indicate that arch thinks my
tree is out of date in some way (it is not).  I'll append the first
part of the spew at the bottom of this message, in case it helps at
all (it's too long to include in its entirety, but I'll provide it if
it would help).

Hoping that this is an error between the seat and keyboard...

Pax,
