Look at the patch in http://bugs.debian.org/246404.  I have not
reviewed this patch yet.  After I review the patch I'll commit it to
the main MIT Kerberos repository.  However we do not currently have
plans for an additional 1.3.x based release, so you will probably want
to apply this patch or a similar patch yourself.

(The problem will be fixed in MIT Kerberos 1.4, but that's a ways
off.)
