This is truly bizarre. Are you sure you're re-installing (and
restarting) xend when you upgrade? I could imagine that an old
xend version might conceivably have this effect.

Have you tried doing a 'make uninstall' to clear out old
versions. (This script is actually *really* dumb, so read what it
does and modify appropriately --- copy back your config files
when you're done.)

I'd certainly stick to using sdb1 as exporting whole disks is
probably used by far fewer people (but certainly believed to
work). I'd also try having the target device as 'sda1' or 'hda1'
as this is more normal than using sdb1. e.g.

  disk = [ 'phy:sdb1,sda1,w' ]
