Description
When building Perl on Rocky Linux 9, the "afs" configuration is always set to true, due to the root-level '/afs' directory always being present.
Ref: https://www.reddit.com/r/Fedora/comments/z090bw/whats_the_afs_dir_on_my_f37_system_its_empty/
Steps to Reproduce
Install Perl on RHEL/CentOS/Rocky Linux 9 or recent versions of Fedora Linux. The configure script will ask AFS-related questions and the 'afs' configuration will be set to true.
$ perl -V:afs
afs='true';
Expected behavior
Possibly there is some better way to detect if AFS is actually installed/in use? On CentOS 7:
$ perl -V:afs
afs='false';
