Ok.   The short answer is that I must build a new kernel in order to use
the AFS client.  The package openafs-client should then say as much.

The readme implies that there are binaries.  That would be great:

     "The easiest  The easiest way to get AFS modules is to install prebuilt 
modules.  For
      example, if you are running kernel 2.4.27-2-686-smp, you might try:
           apt-get install openafs-modules-2.4.27-2-686-smp"

However, apt-cache shows only the source package so again it is actually
necessary to build custom kernel:

   # apt-cache search openafs-modules
   openafs-modules-source - AFS distributed filesystem kernel module source

So for the short-term work-around: build a new kernel.
