Thanks for all the help, everyone.
The X server Kerberos implementation that Tom Yu did for us for R6
also puts the replay cache in /tmp. Could you please check and see
if it is subject to the same bug?
If the system has a cron job which periodically deletes stale files in
/tmp, the answer is yes. Of course, today we have a similar problem if
the same cron job deletes /tmp/.X11-unix, so I don't think we ought to
consider it a terribly serious bug.
