On this, someone said on the talk "we use only libc" (and I implicitly
understood: in the binaries we distribute).

    You have to be quite careful with claims from Fridrich, they are often
exaggerated for comic effect :-)

a more accurate statement would be, we only use libraries that are in a
sufficiently recent version in our baseline system, and which are
available in ~all mainstream Linux distros.  iirc it was determined (but
forgot where) that the Kerberos stuff also belongs to that category.

OK, then I'm enabling (in master) Kerberos for GNU/Linux by
default. I'm also enabling it in *BSD, since from browsing the source
repositories of Net/Free/OpenBSD, libkrb5 is included in their basic
sources (not in the ports, in the sources themselves).

Which means tinderbox operators need to add the corresponding
-dev/-devel packages to the build environment.
