openafs-1.2.10-36 on k_smp-2.4.21-149 does not work at all.
openafs on AMD64 is known to be broken. We currently don't have a solution. There is a project to completely reimplement a new afs kernel client for Linux, that may be the best bet longer term (an early version is already in the 2.6 kernel).

Today I have tested openafs client with 2.4.21-171-smp kernel. I have compiled the libafs module with gcc32-3.2.3-6 (from fedora) and it seems to work ok.
So you're saying it breaks as soon as being compiled with gcc 3.3 ? The openafs code builds outside the kernel tree, right? Can you check it is using -mno-red-zone to build the kernel module? gcc 3.2 didn't need that and I've seen this problem with other drivers too. -Andi
