That's an excellent question. Jeffery is right though - adding this to  
my krb5.conf fixed the realm issue:

[domain_realm]
  .staging.wg = STAGING.WG
  staging.wg = STAGING.WG
  .wg = STAGING.WG
  wg = STAGING.WG

staging [joe@nms ~]$ klist
Ticket cache: FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_10000
Default principal: joe@STAGING.WG

Valid starting     Expires            Service principal
11/27/08 11:41:29  11/28/08 11:40:46  krbtgt/STAGING.WG@STAGING.WG
11/27/08 11:41:41  11/28/08 11:40:46  ldap/db.wg@STAGING.WG
