krb5 1.9.1 gss_accept_sec_context() returning major=851968 minor=100001

If it helps, I noticed by running my application in GDB that the value
of '*minor_status' inside gss_accept_sec_context() at the point of
function return is 2529639056 ("Wrong principal in request"), but after
the function returns my application thinks the value is 100001. I have
no idea how this mismatch could occur. This is a C++ application running
on 64-bit Linux, in case it matters.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Adam
