It sounds like your credentials aren't being forwarded across the
connection (which is a different operation than just authentication).
I'm not sure what triggers that in ssh; ssh people will have to speak
up about that.

I take that as a "no".

Well ... right now the working patch is for an old version of MIT Kerberos.
I'm in the middle of upgrading everything, but it's all busted now.
Conceptually, the patch is very easy; in login.krb5, just run aklog if
credentials exist. Probably you could do it in an afternoon.
