Its not specifically blocked, its just not possible with the AFS setup. The key is stored on your home directory which the machine you are sshing into doesnt have direct acess to since it is stored over AFS. When you login the server gets a kerberos ticket/token on your behalf, and THEN uses that to access your homedir.
see http://www.csic.umd.edu/linuxlab/faq.html#SSH for more info.
