My point is that the program shouldn't try to do something that it
knows will fail. If we can't make it work the straightforward way,
either do a pair of copies through a temp file on the local machine,
or display a message saying that it can't do it. The current failure
mode make is look like I did something wrong.
But I realize that this isn't a high priority bug and probably won't
get fixed before krb5 is out.
