The port already works, and the regular Debian packages even build for
arm and armel.  Whatever is going on here is a Maemo-specific packaging
problem, apparently related to fakeroot working differently in the Maemo
cross-build environment.  (The regular Debian OpenAFS package is built
native on arm and armel, not cross-built.)
