Also, don't think that there's any suggestion that the token itself need to be
encoded in BER. Only the relatively simple GSSAPI header is expressed in ASN.1
- the rest of the token is "free-form".
The GSSAPI header is small enough (and constant enough) that we expect that an
implementation should have no trouble using it, even if the inner-token format
doesn't (and doesn't want to) use ASN.1.
