Okay, edsc fixed itself, I fixed dsgrep, I fixed lpr, I fixed tcsh,
and I did part of clusterinfo.  (We still have to put a
cluster.fallback file in the source tree and install it in
/etc/athena.)  That leaves:

	- krb5 is flaky talking to the kdc.

This one is weird.  Nathan reported:

I also saw slowness for Kerberos-related things, but saw different
things from tcpdump.  Getting tickets paused for about a minute before
sending any packets on port 88; when it did send a packet (to
kerberos-95), it got a response immediately and gave me my prompt
back.  Likewise, an rlogin connection to small-gods paused for a bit
before sending any packets on port 88, but again sent only one packet
and got a response back immediately.  Then I couldn't get things to be
slow any more.  It's like there's some weird network connectivity or
name service issue.

I also noticed aklog being slow sometimes, but not when I wanted it to
be.
