	This is correct; we should add to the known bugs section that
you need to set both
localstatedir and sysconfdir to lib
in order to get the old, bogus directory structure.

>From the top README

* The directory structure used for installations has changed.  In
particular, files previously located in $prefix/lib/krb5kdc are now
normally located in $sysconfdir/krb5kdc.  With the normal configure
options, this means the KDC database goes in /usr/local/var/krb5kdc by
default.  If you wish to have the old behavior, then you would use a
configure line like the following:

        configure --prefix=/usr/local --sysconfdir=/usr/local/lib
                                        ^^^^^^^^^^^


The Kerberos V5 Installation Guide refers to 
 --localstatdir
 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
as the way to change this with the default being $PREFIX/var/krb5kdc

from src/configure:
sysconfdir='${prefix}/etc'
localstatedir='${prefix}/var'
