Some platforms use the GNU target triplet as a prefix to the toolchain utilities (e.g. x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-as) to allow the use of alternative toolchains, cross-compiling, etc. The Gentoo Linux distribution has a mode of building packages (-native-symlinks) where the toolchain utilities only exist as their prefixed names (e.g. 'as' does not exist, but 'x86_64_pc-linux-gnu-as' does). This results in configure failing to locate the tools when using AC_CHECK_PROGS. (Gentoo uses the --host and --build configure parameters to specify the prefix names for the tools). Replace AC_CHECK_PROGS with AC_CHECK_TOOL for the toolchain related commands 'as' and 'ld'. AC_CHECK_TOOL works like AC_CHECK_PROGS but it will also look for the program with a prefix (specified by using configure's --host parameter). Note: libtool.m4 runs AC_CHECK_TOOL for ar.

AFS is a distributed file system that enables users to share and access all of the files stored in a network of computers as easily as they access the files stored on their local machines. The file system is called distributed for this exact reason: files can reside on many different machines, but are available to users on every machine. OpenAFS 1.0 was originally released by IBM under the terms of the IBM Public License 1.0 (IPL10). For details on IPL10 see the LICENSE file in this directory. The current OpenAFS distribution is licensed under a combination of the IPL10 and many other licenses as granted by the relevant copyright holders. The LICENSE file in this directory contains more details, thought it is not a comprehensive statement. See INSTALL for information about building and installing OpenAFS on various platforms. See CODING for developer information and guidelines. See NEWS for recent changes to OpenAFS.
