Actually, it looks good.  I think the reason that it feels awkward is that it 
crams all this stuff into a single variable.  However, AFS only has the one @ 
variable, and without changing that, I think you're stuck.  So, given the 
limitation of a single variable I think it's sufficient.

If a site wishes to (eg) share /etc/printcap among the various versions of 
linux, they can set up a CPU-neutral directory themselves and point symlinks 
into it.
