[OpenAFS] unable to modload on some but not all solaris 2.7 systems

[Nathan Neulinger]

We just did a big round of scheduled maintenance on about 300 systems. A
couple of the solaris 2.7 systems did not successfully upgrade the afs
client however for some strange reason. 

I can't find anything special or different about these two machines, but
the modload is getting a no such file or directory error:

As near as I can tell, the other machines that worked have the same
exact module files, and the installs of the machines should be the same.

Before I just go and re-jumpstart these machines, any ideas on what
might be causing the failure?
