[OpenAFS] Linking GPL3 code with IPL? (Was: afs_syscall (Samba as a client of OpenAFS))

Hi,

I've built up a patch (attachment 3658 to bug 5799 on samba bugzilla)
which makes fake-kaserver and vfs-afsacl work again.
But the patched configure makes smbd, net and maybe other binaries link
with libsys.a in order to communicate with the openafs kernel code. The
question is what are the legal consequences, are the binaries
distributable et all?

Thanks
