The bug was in the portion of the Kerberos sources which would have been
stripped out by the "Bones" distribution made at MIT.  I haven't
personally had a chance to take a look at the "eBones" distribution,
which had the encryption calls added back outside of the US of A,
to see if it also has similar problems.
