maybe insert a call to krb5_free_creds(gssapi_krb5_context, cred)
into lib/gssapi/init_sec_context.c:init_auth() before the
``return GSS_S...'' statements . . . ? if you initialize cred to
NULL then you add a call to the failure: code also, checking it's
non-NULL first

but then again, i don't really know what this function's doing
and that some of the credential stuff isn't getting stuffed into
the GSSAPI context_handle, so have your Sun Workshop core inspec-
tor handy
