Hi Aaron and all,
I am terribly sorry, it was not a bug after all... Only a while after
sending my bug report, I realized that a problem could be that I just
did not have any Kerberos 5 tickets (err, credentials cache) on my host,
and that telnet would just be silent about it.
When I logged in again on the same machine later, everything worked
perfectly. I have still no clue how I managed to lose my Kerberos 5
tickets that day, but now it's back to normal.
Sven
