Nothing should have changed to make this necessary. If you'd like to
help figure out what's going on, comparing the output of
"KRB5_TRACE=/dev/stdout kinit user at IC.AC.UK" on both versions might be
helpful. Also, finding out the installed krb5 version for each Ubuntu
version ("dpkg -l krb5-user") would be useful.
Also, default_domain is a krb4 relic. You should never need to set it
any more.
