Just done a mistype using kadmin... I then type ^C in order to have a new
command line. And you know what? kadmin reply with the message:
        Unknown request "MYPASSWORD". Type "?" for a request list.
                         ^^^^^^^^^^
(MYPASSWORD isn't my real password, of course! ;-)

Well, it's not a big bug, as it's necessary to have typed it correctly in order
to have the prompt... But it's still a bug! :)

PS: My version? just installed KRB5B7.
