The new Kerberos library has the following routines for
manipulating ticket files:
* tf_init opens the ticket file and locks it.
*
* tf_get_pname returns the principal's name.
*
* tf_get_pinst returns the principal's instance (may be null).
*
* tf_get_cred returns the next CREDENTIALS record.
*
* tf_close closes the ticket file and releases the lock.
