That's great. We need a pam_krb5 which supports an option like 
"no_user_check". I guess, yours does not?

My pam-krb5 did compile and work on AIX at one point in the past, I think,
although it's been a while and something else probably broke.  I'm happy
to try to help with the porting if you want to give it a shot.  It's at:

    http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/software/pam-krb5/

I don't have an AIX box, but after 15 years of porting UNIX software, I
can usually figure out what's wrong from the compiler error messages.  :)
