This wouldn't happen to be Solaris, would it?  The kafs library needs to
be compiled without optimization for some reason, at least with gcc, or
the attempt to read and parse tokens from the kernel will access random
memory leading to either very slow operation as it uselessly scans large
tracts of memory, or core dumps.

I found it easier to just not compile heimdal with optimization at all
on Solaris.

Your libafs kernel module isn't there for some reason, or isn't where
the AFS libraries expect it.  If this is Solaris, make sure you have the
correct entry in /etc/name_to_sysnum and reboot to activate it.
