I was not aware of any issues like this.  Please send a bug report to 
krb5-bugs at mit.edu with as much details as you can reconstruct, including 
the krb5 versions running on the KDCs, specific error messages, and the 
sequence of operations performed.  I will see if I can figure out what 
might have gone wrong.
