Four points:

1. OpenAFS has an obligation to provide backward compatibility with IBM
AFS 3.6 rxkad as long as it wishes to use the name.

2. Frustrating end users who have no control over their cell
administrators will not result in sites having an incentive to upgrade
their cells.

3. Breaking one platform is not fair.  If OpenAFS is going to break
compatibility it should do so for all platforms.

4. aklog requires DES support for session keys to use with fcrypt.
There is no additional strength obtained from a 56-bit key plus parity
derived from an AES256 session key than from the use of a DES session
key without derivation.  Either way the rxkad challenge-response is
using a 56-bit key and the wire privacy is using fcrypt.

I see no justification for intentionally breaking the use of DES session
keys on OS platforms that still support it.
