krb5.h is installed and contains all the files it might need, except for
autoconf.h. 

Should autoconf.h be included in krb5.h?
Should autoconf.h be installed?

If it is installed, autoconf.h should perhaps have a different name.

If it is included in krb5.h, there are some aspects of krb5.h which are
compiler specific (nested prototypes, groking of void). Should
acconfig.h (and hence autoconf.h) allow one to override the possible
"compiler" specific entities with a -Dfoo=bar?
Also, should the test of const be included in autoconf.h instead of the
hack in krb5.hin which only tests for STDC? (the variable HAS_ANSI_CONST
was not being tested in include/krb5/configure so was removed from
acconfig.h). 

All possibilities....
