Thank you for doing this work, I really appreciate it.

Interestingly, google results for the
API-MS-WIN-APPMODEL-RUNTIME-L1-1-0.DLL search brings up a stackoverflow
page claiming that the tool is a bit out of date and reports false
positives for these libraries
(http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17023419/win-7-64-bit-dll-problems) :(

Are you able to share a list of the software installed on the affected
machines? (I mostly expect not, but it could give guidance into potential
library conflicts.)

Fascinating. I suppose that probably holds for SP1 with windows updates,
but it might be worth verifying.
The first thing that comes to mind would be WSHELP32.dll, a DNS helper
that is installed with KfW.
My notes from dumpbin.exe say that the recursive dependencies of
gssapi32.dll (not including libraries installed with KfW) are:
ADVAPI32.dll, DNSAPI.dll, GDI32.dll, KERNEL32.dll, SHELL32.dll,
Secur32.dll, USER32.dll, and WS2_32.dll (in addition to the C runtime).
ADVAPI32.dll and Secur32.dll stand out as being listed for delayed loading
(which may match your dependency walker output). It's probably worth
checking the version/size/etc on those libraries between the working and
non-working machines.
Thank you for putting so much time into this; I know how frustrating it
can be.
