I'm using saslauthd as an authentication method for slapd, so that's not
really an option...

I could patch kerberos code so that if the cycle goes on for X times
without returning the process dies, or something like that... or I could
simply kill and relaunch saslauthd automatically if it goes weird...

Could this be a saslauthd bug? Is it a problem with kerberos library?
