Thanks for the response and consideration. I understand the reluctance to add the PCRE dependency. I would be happy help any way I can in regards to case folding support... provide information and/or testing etc.
I am not sure there is a huge appetite in writing our own module (being part of a bank, they typically frown on rolling/supporting our own) but nonetheless, looks to be an avenue.
Thanks,
Mike

Has the Kerberos team considered adding PCRE support to the RULE functionality or have another method to deal with windows/linux integrations (system that is case aware to one that is case aware and sensitive)? Are there any alternatives/options/other paths we could entertain?
I don't think we'd want to add a dependency on the PCRE library from libkrb5, but I'm open to adding case-folding support in one form or another. (I'm not immediately sure how it should work in detail.)
One alternative option (in 1.12 or later) is to create, install, and register a localauth module:
