The problem wasn't that not all clients support PA-ENC-TIMESTAMP.  The
problem is that if you don't mark a principal as requiring pre-auth, no
pre-auth will be done, even if the client supports it.  Therefore, if you
set a service principal as requiring pre-auth before setting all
principals authenticating to that service principal as requiring pre-auth
(and waiting for existing ticket caches to expire), authentications
suddenly start failing.
