On a related topic is the issue of Linux-AFS 1.3.x support. Derek
mentioned that he'd need to switch the @sys value to do this because
of a recent kernel change.
I talked things over with Derek, and we found another way to do things
such that we don't need to switch the @sys value. He just needed a
compile-time way to determine whether he was building on a 1.2.x system
or a 1.3.x system. It turns out you can do that by using the
linux/version.h header file.
