I don't think the Kerberos clients have to be all that recent.  I see
references to PW_SALT and ETYPE_INFO padata types at least as far back
as 1.1.  ETYPE_INFO2 support didn't come in until 1.3 (apparently) but I
don't think that's necessary.

In theory, it would be possible to modify all of the principal entries
to contain an explicit salt.  I don't know of specific tools to do this,
although I wouldn't be surprised if someone had written one (in the form
of a dumpfile transformation tool, most likely).
