The Kerberos with OS X Sierra is not MIT’s Kerberos, so the same release numbers don’t apply. It’s a separate implementation of the protocol, called Heimdal Kerberos. Some software that uses Kerberos supports both types of libraries. If node.js supports only MIT, you can get an MIT version of Kerberos from Macports (www.macport.org). It will be installed in /opt/local, so you may have to adjust build or configuration options to point to the right directories.
The current Macports version appears to be 1.15.
