Kerberos protocol version 4 is insecure.

The MIT Kerberos for Windows version 4.x series provides an implementation 
of kerberos protocol version 5 that is suitable for use on Windows, along 
with a GUI Ticket Manager application.  I am not asking you to use 
unsupported software; on the contrary, I am explicitly asking you to use 
the software which is supported for this purpose.

The build on windows is expected to work if you are using a supported 
version of the source tree.
