[OpenAFS-devel] Building for linux 4.10

[Todd Lewis]

And yet, I've been unable to build since the 4.10 kernel-headers package hit.

Thanks for the time and suggestions folks. Much appreciated.

Note: Not to discount Jeffrey Altman's generous contributions vis a vis the
Auristor clients. If I had a more pressing need I'd take him up on the offer
(and may yet), but having banged my head for this long I'd like to see it
through. Besides, it's just more fun to run stuff you built.
