It's my opinion that part of providing Kerberos4 compatability
should be providing a Kerberos4 build environment. There are a lot of
old applications out there--things like Zephyr, Lpr, backup systems,
Cvs, etc, that do not support Krb5 directly. It is reasonable that a
new site--a site that has never run Kerberos before might choose to
install Kerberos V5 but still want to run these applications.
Since we have all the necessary files to build these
applications already in the source tree, it's kind of silly not to
install them. Probably, they should be installed in
$(prefix)/include/krb4 or $(prefix)/include/kerberosIV, not at the top
of the include tree.
