Getting the right bits in the config/param.*.h files is not too hard, but it
seems there are many places in the OpenAFS source tree which use __linux__
as a proxy for GNU userland or some other particular userland feature, and
these would need to be replaced with proper configure feature checks.

There's also __GLIBC__, FWIW.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.
Of course, now that I actually go back and look, the condition I was stumbling on was not actually __linux__ but rather AFS_LINUX20_ENV, which is an OpenAFS-internal definition, but is only supposed to be used in the kernel.n So that's where the "configure feature checks" part I was remembering was coming from.

Milan, if you want to press on with things, I can send you the patches I came up with ... I am defending my Ph.D. thesis in a couple weeks, and I may have more time to return to things like this after that is done.
