Hard for me to tell exactly.  The gssapi_krb5 shared library appears to 
be from MIT, but it isn't clear that this is where the problem lies. 
The  "libgssapi-0.7" source package is one that I found on Suse's 
website.  I found the source RPM and unpacked so that I could build a 
debug version of the thing and properly step in.  The Suse 10 box 
actually uses somewhat older binaries:

babel-vm-suse2:/home/eric/bin # rpm -qi libgssapi-0.3-2

Summary     : Generic GSSAPI library
Description :
This library exports a gssapi interface, but doesn't implement any
gssapi mechanisms itself; instead it calls gssapi routines in other
libraries, depending on the mechanism.
