Not quite that simple -- under what circumstances should we still
return "ticket expired" instead of "no ticket"?  Presumably for the
TGT, but that's information the ccache layer shouldn't be dealing
with.  Probably the next layer up should be checking for expired
tickets.

But yes, it makes no sense to have the acquired host ticket have a
shorter lifetime than the TGT.
