I very much doubt that. I don't ever get any bug reports on the kerberos stuff
and I never read any comments about it. All I know is that the code still
builds...

Oops, it wasn't supposed syslog. I made your code used for all platforms

Hm, I think you're wrong. I say it is only called after a connection is
completed, and therefor the wording is correct.

We could spend some time to clarify (either by rewrites or just be adding
better comments) some of this code, as it isn't at all straight-forward to
understand...
