Ken and Michael,

Thanks for the responses.

Ken, our usage of KRB5 is actually straightforward. Trying to obtain the
codes first thing was only to try to understand the problem better. We have
no requirement to actually do this.

Michael, I believe you are correct about the MIT RT ticket #5841, expecially
since we only see the problem on 64 bit platforms. We will pass this on to
our distro provider.

Thanks!

Tom
