Kerberos has not been built into the base FreeBSD of any FreeBSD system I manage (at home or work), so OpenSSH does not have any of its Kerberos bits turned on (as verified by ldd). MIT Kerberos has been installed from ports (this matches what Open Systems has on the approximately 150 hosts we manage of which FreeBSD is only 5 of the 150) it will not enable Kerberos in the base OpenSSH unless Heimdal Kerberos has been enabled in the base system. As I'm going to get flamed for not using Heimdal Kerberos and using MIT Kerberos, it on my long list of things to do (investigate first), and it's not near the top of the list either. Back to the SSH topic at hand: Kerberos is not a factor in OpenSSH on the systems I tested.
