The fetchmail in the sipb locker, at least for Suns, appears to
be broken for doing kpop. With my test account:
[ssiehcaz@contents-vnder-pressvre] /afs/athena.mit.edu/user/s/s/ssiehcaz$ from
POP mail:

fetchmail: krb5_sendauth: Bad response (during sendauth exchange)

fetchmail: POP3< ERR Kerberos authentication failure: Generic kerberos error (kfailure)
fetchmail: client/server synchronization error while fetching from po11
fetchmail: normal termination, status 7
[ssiehcaz@contents-vnder-pressvre] /afs/athena.mit.edu/user/s/s/ssiehcaz$ fetchmail -c -v -p kpop -A kerberos_v4 po11
Invalid preauthentication `kerberos_v4' specified.
Also fails if I don't specify a -A option at all.
Looking at the code, it looks like if it's built with KERBEROS_V5
defined, it's mostly useless for krb4 kpop.
