[krbdev.mit.edu #2980] Windows XP SP2 and trouble with free library krb5_32.dll

[Jeffrey Altman via RT]

This is an open issue.  Every DLL in the Kerberos package makes use of 
WSA calls.  Including WSHELP32.DLL, KRBV4w32.DLL, KRB5_32.DLL, ....
Significant architectural changes will need to be implemented if we 
decide that Windows Sockets are to be initialized by the libraries and
not the application.  (that is an open question at the moment.)

There are no immediate plans to release a KFW 2.6.6 to address this issue.
The OpenAFS for Windows WinLogon Event Handlers and Network Providers
both utilize the KFW 2.6.5 libraries without issue therefore we know it
is possible for the libraries to be used without incident even if it is
not recommended procedure.

Essentially, do not load or unload the MIT KFW DLLs from your DllMain
and you should not have a problem.  The next release of KFW will deal
with this issue in one manner or another.
