This lost most definitely to be an OS X thing.  Netatalk is directly
triggering a kextload.

Can you get a sniffer trace with ethereal or tcpdump?

What flags are you using the build the Netatalk port?  Note that there
were some changes in 10.2.6 with the way OS X recognizes Netatalk
servers.  One of our developers is working on a AFP 3.x branch now which
should improve the OS X support.  With other responsibilities, I have
not been engaged as much in the project, so I'm not sure when the next
release is due out.
