If the kerberos libraries cannot find KRB5_CONFIG (for instance, the
fileserver it's on "happens" to go away...), then most programs using
krb5 libraries seem to core dump. E.g. zwrite, blanche ,etc. Example:
[opus!jhawk] /var/tmp> setenv KRB5_CONFIG /path/to/bogosity
[opus!jhawk] /var/tmp> zwrite jhawk
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[opus!jhawk] /var/tmp> gdb zwrite
