Well, it works just fine for me:

However, there have been several reports of intermittent failures with
later versions of palo; if you could actually track the issue down, that
would be greatly appreciated.

The current thought is that it's a command line issue (i.e. embedding a
commmand line >128 characters in palo causes failures).
