Setting the "requires_prauth" field of a principal causes kinit to
fail with the message:

kinit: ASN.1 structure is missing a required field while getting initial
credentials

Stepping around in the debugger, this error is being generated by the
setup_buf_only() macro of decode_krb5_sam_challenge.  This causes kinit to
crap out, even though there is another preauth type that it was able to
obtain answers for.
