>Description:
src/clients/ksu/krb_auth_su.c contains a call to plain_dump_principal
which is invoked when GET_TGT_VIA_PASSWD is not defined that only
supplies the client and not the context parameter. The result
is a core dump when this code is invoked. It is rarely invoked
and thus a low priority but the fix is simple and clean.
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile krb5-current with GET_TGT_VIA_PASSWD undefined and issue ksu.
>Fix:
