Hi Frank,
For the past couple of weeks, I've been working on trying to get your
patches integrated into the source tree. Unfortunately, your patches
had multiple changes all bundled together, and also made some
significant rearrangements of the file structures in the source tree.
Worse yet (although this wasn't your fault because you probably didn't
know about other activities going on at that time), your changes
happened while we were working on the triple-DES code. This would
normally make the merge process painful, but when this was combined with
the radical rearrangement of the sources, it made the merge impossible.
This was especially clear when I noticed that your patch removed the
FundsXpress copyright (FundsXpress funded and contributed the 3DES code)
in k5-int.h.
Anyway, I merged at least some of the changes (see krb5-current) but I
couldn't deal with the rearranged sources without spending huge amounts
time reworking it all. Was there anything in your patches besides
splitting all of kdc/kdc_preauth.c into separate files, or were there
some changes that were also made while you split up kdc/kdc_preauth.c?
