   Problem: /kerberos/krb5-1.0/src/lib/krb5/rcache/rc_io.c
     - this routine is used to check that a cache file has been created
       and has the right ownerships.  The problem is that it does not
       work correctly with SUID programs,  and it does not check to see
       that the file is really owned by the right person.

A patch to solve this problem has already been checked into our tree,
and it will be fixed in the patchlevel 1 release.
