Thanks for the report; you're right, and we should be looking for
misc/amd64/nfssrv. This has been corrected in gerrit 2497 and will be in
future openafs releases.

If you want, the patch we went with is here:
<http://git.openafs.org/?p=openafs.git;a=commit;h=39643598a216c2e892cd94ccb441180a4c4f949e>,
but if you're okay with what you're doing, you should be fine.

And I'm just wondering, are you actually using the AFS/NFS translator?
If you load the libafs64.nonfs.o version of the module, you don't need
to do any of this (but you can't use the translator). Also, if you load
the module /kernel/misc/nfssrv (instead of /kernel/misc/amd64/nfssrv),
it should also have worked.
