OpenAFS has a partial port to FreeBSD; there have been a few folks who have
been dilligently working on this over the past couple of years.

>From http://www.openafs.org/projects.html, it appears that all the *BSDs
have some degree of support but with missing pieces.

Your best bet is to join the mailing lists, put on your developer's hat and
help out -- especially if you have access to AFS resources.
