I guess I agree wholeheartedly with this; I haven't yet seen a
convincing argument that leaving the `#include <krb5/...>' in the .c
source tree is untenable.  It should work as-is on UNIX and (I
believe) DOS; and MacOS doesn't have filename length limitations which
would prevent keeping the same names.  What OS does this cause
problems for?

Frankly I have enough trouble as it is attempting to convince my
management that tracking MIT's changes to the kerberos tree is a
worthwhile goal...  I think that they're convinced now, but with this
change coming along, it will be harder & harder to convince them that
it's OK.
