The dejagnu tests are broken. I have tracked it down to the changes to
hst_realm.c. 

If I am reading the code right, there have been a change in conventions
with the changes checked in - essentially,dealing with the casing of
entries in the domain_realm section of krb5.conf.

The sample files all assume thinks like

.mit.edu = ATHENA.MIT.EDU

with the current change, it looks like they need to be

.MIT.EDU = ATHENA.MIT.EDU

Personally, I would prefer a compromise which would allow either.
I defintly don't think we should break anyone.
