I believe I have discovered a bug in Beta-3.
In beta-3 the function krb5_sname_to_principal() has been changed.
In beta-2 it accepted a boolean 'conicalize' which, if set,
krb5_sname_to_principal() would conicalize the host portion of the
principal. In beta-3 the boolean has been changed to an integer
'type'. There are two valid values for 'type': KRB5_NT_UNKNOWN and
KRB5_NT_SRV_HST. At the end of krb5_sname_to_principal() the
principal's type is assigned the value of 'type':
krb5_princ_type(*ret_princ) = type;
I discovered that the function krb5_principal_compare() does not
include principal types in the comparison. Shouldn't it?
