Sorry, I should have said that those were the only ones I've tried. I 
initially came across the problem when debugging an application that 
uses the library and just tried running a couple of the samples to 
verify that it wasn't our app that was causing the problem.

Thanks for this tip, I have verified that spufs is mounted.

Thanks, I'll look forward to this fix!
