Sheesh...I make a sample gss application to get myself familiar with GSSAPI,
it works fine, I go off and leave it for several weeks, come back, update my
tree, have problems, complain, get an answer, share the answer, and people
assume I'm going to check it in :)  Well, if I have to go through all this,
I might just check in yet another gss sample application :)

Slightly amused,
