Here's a copy of the latest announcement I could find from John Kohl, the
author of the NetBSD AFS port.  Binaries are available in
/afs/transarc.com/public/afs-contrib/bin/netbsd.client.  Presumably, both
the binaries and source diffs are only available to your AFS administrator.

Subject: Updated AFS diffs for Linux and NetBSD

I've updated the source diff distribution of MIT's Linux and NetBSD ports
of AFS 3.3.

The source diffs are accessible to sites with appropriate licenses, at:
/afs/transarc.com/public/afs-contrib/src/mit-ath/NetBSD-Linux/ 

-rw-r--r--  1 5554  11     722 Feb 24 10:48 COPYRIGHT
-rw-r--r--  1 5554  11    2939 Apr 19 21:09 README.afs33.diffs
-rw-r--r--  1 1020  11  125640 Apr 19 22:15 afs33.diffs.gz

These diffs are relative to an AFS 3.3 source tree.  They include the
Athena local modifications described below, as well as new modules and
diffs/bugfixes involved for the ports to NetBSD and Linux.

We've not recently tried building the NetBSD/Linux source tree on other
platforms--if you find problems on other platforms, please let us know.

See the file COPYRIGHT in this directory for details on your rights to
use these differences.

Direct NetBSD questions/problems to <netbsd-afs@mit.edu> or <jtkohl@mit.edu>.
Direct Linux questions/problems to <linux-afs@mit.edu> or <warlord@mit.edu>.
