You haven't looked at the afs sources recently, then :-)

<14> hodge:~> ln -s '#user.brlewis ' brlewis
<15> hodge:~> /bin/ls brlewis
Mail            Rmail           fellows         rsaixbin        wais-documents
Mailbox         app-defaults    marc            rtbin           wais-questions
Makefile        bitmaps         netwatch.log    sig.fad         wais-sources
News            decmipsbin      preferences     src
OldFiles        etc             ps2bin          update
Private         exl             resume          vaxbin
<16> hodge:~> rm brlewis
delete: brlewis: can't delete (directory not empty)
Exit 1
<17> hodge:~> rmdir brlewis
rmdir: brlewis: Not a directory
Exit 1
<18> hodge:~> fs rmm brlewis
<19> hodge:~>

And this is even documented.  The afs programmer's manual says that
the only way to create an afs mountpoint is with the SYS_symlink
syscall.  There is no other mechanism.
