I did ask Harry to do that, but I haven't had a chance to check through
the code and make sure it does this. Is there a specific reason why
you're asking; something that we should be worried about? ....
Yes; the ASN.1 encoders used by the kerberos in DCE sends a bunch of
fields with indefinite length encoding rather than definite length
encoding.
.... and this is a bug that's going to be fixed ASAP, right? :-)
