Summary: autodetection of GSSAPI-MIT could be better

Initial Comment:
as per bug https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216096 it seems like the autodetection of MIT vs heimdal could be insufficient.

At least in the gentoo with heimdal installed/usr/include/gssapi symlinks to heimdal (for compatibility - ironic i know).

As such the autoconfig check for gssapi/gssapi.h, the deteriming factor for MIT, suceeds even when heimdal is installed.

As an alternative you could look for gssapi/gssapi_generic.h as follows:

--- /tmp/curl-7.18.1/configure.ac 2008-03-28 10:10:24.000000000 +1100
+++ configure.ac 2008-04-05 00:11:23.000000000 +1100
@@ -984,7 +984,7 @@
     ],
     [
       dnl not found, check MIT
- AC_CHECK_HEADER(gssapi/gssapi.h,
+ AC_CHECK_HEADER(gssapi/gssapi_generic.h,
         [
           dnl found in the given dirs

This file exists in the 1.5.3 and 1.6.3 versions of mit-krb5 and doesn't exist in the 0.7.2/1.1 versions of heimdal.

Just a suggestion - realise there are many distros to take into account here.

Michal Marek just posted a possible fix for this problem on the curl-users
list, can you see if that's a working fix for you:
