Of all the Kerberos implementations I've dealt with it seems that these days the 4.4BSD derived systems are the only ones isolating the Kerberos 4 include files in this subdirectory. As a developer this is a minor but annoying pain in the *** in that it's necessary to special case software configuration scripts to deal with the non-orthagonal prefixes to the Kerberos include and lib directories on FreeBSD (and BSD/OS) systems. I'd like to propose that for 3.0 we follow the rest of the world and move the Kerberos 4 includes directly into /usr/include. We could leave a symlink behind to maintain souce compatibility with existing code that #includes . --lyndon
