Thanks Stephan!

I think the CONFIG_AVX512 command is going to matter only if you're on a
system that supports it (none of ours do). I think RHEL 7.4 introduced some
additional support for AVX512, which may explain why you see that on a RHEL
7.4 system.

We just usually build the RPMs using the provided source RPM and "rpmbuild
--rebuild" commands (which I believe removes the build tree automatically).
Not sure if this is relevant, but when we first discovered the issue, most
of the OpenAFS RPMs being used were built on a pre-RHEL 7.4 system. The
only RPM that was specifically built on a RHEL 7.4 system would have been
the kmod-openafs RPM (for the RHEL 7.4 kernel). We don't use DKMS for our
OpenAFS setup.

We can still do a manual configure on a system and attach the config.log as
well, if you'd still like that. Just let us know.

Thanks.
