Here is a patch.  it was based of the 2004-12-24 snapshot (I had trouble
getting todays to compile).

*** ../openssh/gss-serv.c       Mon Nov 17 04:18:22 2003
--- gss-serv.c  Fri Jan 30 16:35:24 2004
***************
*** 117,124 ****
         * we flag the user as also having been authenticated
         */

!       if (((flags == NULL) || ((*flags & GSS_C_MUTUAL_FLAG) &&
!           (*flags & GSS_C_INTEG_FLAG))) && (ctx->major == GSS_S_COMPLETE))
{
                if (ssh_gssapi_getclient(ctx, &gssapi_client))
                        fatal("Couldn't convert client name");
        }
--- 117,123 ----
         * we flag the user as also having been authenticated
         */

!       if(ctx->major == GSS_S_COMPLETE) {
                if (ssh_gssapi_getclient(ctx, &gssapi_client))
                        fatal("Couldn't convert client name");
        }

This right here is the key to me.  If someone is not following the RFC.
Then I say let them complaint to their vendor.

Again I ask.. As the code stands are *WE* in RFC compliance?  If not we
need it fixed.

As for what to base it off of.  Pick a recent snapshot.  Not as if the
GSSAPI-WITH-MIC code has drasticly changed in the last few days.
