I have not tried Samba 2.2.3 yet, but the --with-afs option under
Samba 2.2.2 is basically pointless.  We run samba 2.2.2 on a linux
machine, and we did not include the --with-afs option.  The problem
is there were a lot of changes made to samba since the original AFS
support was added to samba, and most of the people doing that samba
work have no contact with AFS.  So, the AFS support has fallen apart
as the rest of samba gets improved.

Perhaps things have improved now that OpenAFS is available, and more
people might be running AFS/OpenAFS clients.
