We are running a client derived from OpenAFS 1.4.1 on sles9 wihtout 
problems since long.

In /var/log/messages a start looks like:

Jul 10 09:11:10 mpp-fs10 syslogd 1.4.1: restart.Jul 10 09:11:12 mpp-fs10 
kernel: libafs: module not supported by Novell, setting U taint flag.

Jul 10 09:11:12 mpp-fs10 kernel: libafs: no version for "sys_close" 
found: kernel tainted.
