Sam asked about uses of aname_to_localname.
For removing a functionality like this, it's more appropriate to ask
on the kerberos mailing list instead of on a semi-private developer's
list.
We use it to map users from three different realms (which have
non-conflicting username and userid spaces) into local users on a POP
server. user@realm1, user@realm2 and user@realm3 are all mapped to
"user".
This could be done mechanically.
