There is
CONFIG_AFS_FS=m
in the kernel, but I think that's for the Andrew File System. Also,
it's a module for the stock kernels, so I should already have access to
it.
There is also an
CONFIG_DEV_APPLETALK=m
option. Again, it's enabled in the stock kernel. Also, I think this
refers to using the Appletalk protocol, which Apple now deprecates in
favor of TCP/IP.
So I think my kernel is as set as it can be.

I though kdnssd, which I have installed, had the kioslave. I can't find
anything else that looks relevant. Here's the description.
Description: Zeroconf support for KDE
A kioslave and kded module that provide Zeroconf support. Try
"zeroconf:/" in Konqueror.
