It's not that it wouldn't compile - it does.
I can't load it into the kernel.

The error messages show that the symbols from the kernel module don't
work with the 64-bit kernel. I see messages like these
	genunix: [ID 387338 kern.notice]  symbol rx_rpc_stats:
	genunix: [ID 780736 kern.notice]  value 0xffffffffc00a2378 does not fit
	genunix: [ID 754994 kern.notice] relocation error: 10:
	genunix: [ID 397992 kern.notice]  file /kernel/fs/amd64/afs
for pretty much every symbol from the AFS kernel module.
