We had to set the virus scanner to ignore the ~snapshot directory to get rid of 
the bulk of our access denied problems.
We still have an ongoing problem with wide UTF characters (tickets open with 
IBM to resolve it), despite OnTap 7.3.4 and TSM 6.2.3.1.  If I recall 
correctly, we were seeing those invalid file handle messages related to this, 
as well.  We're also getting a fair number of "ANS1304W: An active backup 
version could not be found", which I haven't been able to figure why.
To the original poster's question, we're running snapdiff from a 6.2 client to 
a 5.4 server.  IBM will tell you to piss off if you have any problems, though, 
unless you can reproduce it against a 6.1 or 6.2 server.

Fill with mingled cream and amber, 
I will drain that glass again. 
Such hilarious visions clamber 
Through the chamber of my brain — 
Quaintest thoughts — queerest fancies 
Come to life and fade away; 
What care I how time advances? 
I am drinking ale today.
