We currently have krb5 1.0 in the repository.

We treat Kerberos 5 as an externally maintained piece of software.
Ideally, I would like to stick to releases, not development snapshots
(although I have used development snapshots in the past for other
pieces of software, notably CNS).  If you come out with the first
patch release to krb5 1.0 before about April, I can import it.
