I was worried for a bit, as those symbols should definitely be used in
some non-library binaries shipped with the package.  But apparently not
the ones in openafs-client, which is what I looked at; openafs-fileserver,
on the other hand, does have the 1.7~git20150920 dependency.  So it's
properly only the build-depend that needs manual intervention.
