Getting the right error code in tryagain client pre-auth interface

Hello,
when implementing the "tryagain" callback, I need to check whether the
error code is the one I'm expecting to deal with (in my case,
KRB5KDC_ERR_MORE_PREAUTH_DATA_REQUIRED). The numeric value of code is 91.
The problem is that, in order to make it work with the other functions,
I had to define that constant not as 91, but as:
#define KRB5KDC_ERR_MORE_PREAUTH_DATA_REQUIRED (-1765328293L)
which was the value assigned to KRB5PLACEHOLD_91
Thus, I cannot use that constant to check the error->error value in the
"tryagain" callback, since that parameter takes the 91 value, not the
-1765328293L one.
Is this an error, and the error->error value should be -1765328293L, or
should I "preprocess" the value to make it match the one in the #define?
Regards,
Alejandro
