Ah, OK, I see. Yeah, I also sometimes see this with the OpenAFS module 
on Debian *testing*, where it can happen that the kernel is too new so 
that the module doesn't build until a compatibilty fix is released. I 
usually swtich to the in-kernel AFS module temporarily in these cases.

However, this never happened on Debian *stable*, neither for OpenAFS, 
nor for ZFS.
