I've imported a couple of missing support files and adapted these
scripts.  I'm running into a couple of problems:

  * find-openafs-kernels produces an empty list for dapper-amd64 and
    dapper-i386.  apt-file update is getting an empty Contents file.
    I haven't looked into this very much except to note that it also
    happens on debuild.mit.edu if I run the original Debathena script
    in /mit/debathena/packages/third/openafs.

  * The result of find-openafs-kernels includes a whole bunch of amd64
    packages for sarge-i386, and one for lenny-i386.  I don't know if
    this is wrong or merely puzzling to me.  I can handwave away the
    amd64 packages for sarge-i386 because Sarge has no amd64 port, so
    maybe it had amd64-specific kernels without a full amd64 suite.
    The lenny-i386 one can't be handwaved.

  * 40 of the builds failed: one on lenny (specifically, the amd64
    package mentioned above), 21 on edgy, 3 on feisty, and 15 on
    gutsy.  I notice the debathena locker also lists some failures; I
    don't know if some of them are expected or not.  The one failure I
    looked into (the amd64 headers package on lenny) appeared to be
    running into an order-of-includes problem.

Any insights are appreciated; otherwise I'll plug away at these
further on my own.
