I don't remember the original report, but in the 1.12 release notes, here is
an excerpt referring to krb5-send-pr:

--------------

Please report any problems/bugs/comments using the krb5-send-pr
program.  The krb5-send-pr program will be installed in the sbin
directory once you have successfully compiled and installed Kerberos
V5 (or if you have installed one of our binary distributions).

I'm not sure what web page this report refers to (and Richard probably 
doesn't remember after six years).  If there is a page recommending send-
pr or krb5-send-pr, it should be changed to recommend sending mail to 
krb5-bugs at mit.edu.

In a similar vein, krb5-send-pr should probably just print out a message 
saying to send mail to krb5-bugs at mit.edu, and maybe suggesting some of 
the kinds of things to include in the report.  We could remove it a few 
releases after changing it that way.

I've changed the ticket subject accordingly.
