Maybe. But I cannot compile the OpenAFS module without modifying the source to 
ignore the error (like the configure script does).

The easiest way I found to compile the module is to make OpenAFS "temporary" 
GPL compliant. I replaced all 

  MODULE_LICENSE("http://www.openafs.org/dl/license10.html");
     by
  MODULE_LICENSE("GPL");
