Or someone is stuffing the film into a film holder or hanger with big 
clumsy paws, and bending it too much in the process.  It doesn't make 
sense to me that it could be damaged like that during drying, although I 
am not exactly certain what you mean by "buckling".

Are you sure it isn't you, bending it while loading (or even unloading) 
your film holders?
