I looked closer at openssh's configure.ac, and they check for
krb5-config, and if it is found, they simply use the output from
krb5-config --libs, which makes sense. On my system, however, the
output is:

-L/usr/heimdal/lib -lkrb5 -lasn1 -L/usr/athena/lib -lcrypto -lroken \
 -lcrypt -lresolv

Heimdal was configured with --with-krb4=/usr/athena. If libkrb should
be linked in to resolve symbols in libkrb5, I think krb5-config --libs
should also contain print -lkrb.
