	so upgrade plan would be:
	- disable kerberos4 by default
	- import openssl 0.9.7b (or latest), with kerberos-and-ssl stuff
	  disabled.  shlib major bump.  kerberos portion would not build
	  for a while, i guess?
	- massage kerberos5 portion to work with openssl 0.9.7

	i dunno how to achieve first bullet (MKKERBEROS would disable/enable
	both).
