 Hrm... I haven't tried using MIT krb5 for anything serious for a
 long time as heimdal's always done what I needed.  After a brief
 internet search it doesn't appear that anyone's had the
 heimdal-vs-mit debate lately.  But that debate is a separate issue.

 I have not explicitly offered the changes to Simon;  I thought
 following up on the bug would be the best way to get in touch with
 the right people.  I'm 100% fine with having the patch located
 anywhere else and the corresponding changes made to the Makefile
 and distinfo.  The changes are pretty obvious so if someone offical
 wanted to re-implement them, that'd be fine too.  If there's an
 alternative way to follow up with more appropriate people, just let
 me know.
