I agree no changes needed to code calling gss_init_sec_context()
should be made, but if we only have a tgt-less cache someone would
have to do the work, thus a proxy is needed. I was trying to imagine
how the proxy code would look like, and how would it return the
requested ticket to be saved in the client cache for next usages.
