CreateLocalCellConfig() does so; it is called if afsconf_Open()
fails for the server configuration directory, presumably intended as
an aid to first-time administrators.
Showing a complete strace log of the failed run would probably
indicate why, but would requre the entire log, which would mean it
is a large file.  Just exerpts are unlikely to suffice.
