The Makefiles currently cause every executable which depends on
libkadm5srv to be rebuilt if libkadm5srv gets rebuilt. This dates
back to when static libraries could be built, but might also be needed
in certain cases for shared libraries. The KDC needs libkadm5srv
because that's where some of the code for reading realm configuration
information is located.
