As they say in Denmark, something is rotten.

What platform is this on? Are you sure you're using the OpenAFS client, or one of the off-brand knockoffs ;)

You should be able to klog as any valid AFS user, from any joe random UNIX user. These should be 100% disconnected.

If I create a UNIX user named 'debertin.admin' (despite the fact that
it breaks UNIX conventions regarding username length), su to it, and
issue the same klog command it works fine.

Does it have to be this way?
