I suppose that's true, but I'd wonder how many sites actually have that setup these days, and of those sites, how many have users who have root on the workstations thus allowing them to shoot themselves in the foot in such a manner. I'd speculate that the number is lower than the number of people who might try to install openafs in the time between when RHEL releases a kernel update and Openafs releases the corresponding kmod. I could be wrong, however.

I'd hope to be be able to get into a situation where I can build and make available kernel modules for the current release on all of our 'supported' Fedora and RHEL platforms pretty much immediately upon a new kernel-devel package appearing upstream. This is now pending the availability of suitable build hardware, and some time to finish the required automation.
