Looking over the change, I just wanted to make one note for everyone's
benefit. In general, I prefer using the POSIX function by default, and
providing an emulation for the POSIX function if it does not exist,
instead of vice versa. So instead of using your patches to provide an
emulation for utime() from utimes(), I've recoded the relevant files to
use utime() instead directly. These days, just about everything
supports the POSIX functions --- and if some ancient operating system
still doesn't, we'll provide an emulation function in lib/krb5/posix.
