Not for krb5, no. It would probably not be to hard to add.

Yes.

I think you have to compile with -DDEBUG.

It did work at some time, but since I don't use SIA it has apparenly
deteriorated. There's the additional problem of needing wierd linking
to make it work. For instance there are (or were) stub krb5_ functions
in libX11(!), and if you did the wrong thing when linking you got
those instead and so failed miserably.
