[OpenAFS] Problem building openafs on kernel 2.6.18.2-34-default

[Ken Aaker]

I just got it to build by changing the configure for the command for the
libafs build to use /usr/src/linux instead of /usr/src/linux-obj for the
--with-linux-kernel-headers value. But the spec file that I'm using at
the moment is very messy. I also removed the kernel-syms dependency and
kernel-syms rpm, but I don't know if that helped.
