/var/tmp/krb5_RC*

What might cause an MIT krb5kdc process to dump files in /var/tmp
about 20k in size every 40 minutes or so?  The filenames begin with
"krb5_RC" (so I assume they have to do with the replay cache), followed
by the krb5kdc process id, followed by a three-letter uniquifier.

The files persist across invocations of krb5kdc--hence, they're
filling up the filesystem.
