I wouldn't mind if someone adds a build time switch to leave that

I've been thinking for a while about producing a patch for the OpenAFS specfile which creates a compatibility RPM containing links from the FHS paths to the transarc ones. Something like this is going be necessary to provide a migration strategy for sites running with transarc paths who want to change.

Yes. I've considered the same. The other thing we need, which is harder for non-package-based-platforms, is producing an openafs-config like the krb5-config.... if it's a Transarc style dest tarball, what's the root of it?
