The March 10 version of Xcode (5.1) is going to be actively harmful; I 
believe it will not compile the prefpane from any released version at 
all.

In particular, this error appears to be new with Xcode 5.1. 
http://gerrit.openafs.org/#change,10925 is the patch that should resolve 
this particular build issue.

I trimmed some other error messages from the quoted text; I don't have any 
idea what would be causing them, sorry.
