The problem is indeed that the Kerberos library enforces the owner of
the ticket file. Login does the following:
Create the ticket file
Attach the homedirectory
chown the ticket file to the proper user
I believe this _should_ lose. The Kerberos library is behaving
properly. It is login that is losing. Login should chown the ticket
file long before it forks off any other programs.
