I'm actually looking at whether we can get rid of krb5_set_config_files.  We mark it private in the 
headers in the current releases, it's not even in the installed header in our development version, 
and as you've noticed, we don't export it on Windows.  If you need that functionality, could you 
explain why, and whether something like a krb5_init_context_with_config_files might be better?

This would be a discussion better had on the krbdev at mit list, I think...
