[OpenAFS-devel] Compiling Modules on Redhat 7.1 with Kernel 2.4.4

Ok, this is a packaging bug and is my fault.  My apologies for not
testing the new packages well enough.  I've got a fixed SPEC-file so I
can build a new set of packages.  However, I can only build new RH 6.2
RPMs, Derrick will have to build new RPMs for RH 7.1.

PS: I think you may be able to use the 2.4.2 module with 2.4.4,
but I'm not sure.
