I would argue that any time you need to specify CPPFLAGS and LIBS to tell configure to use a particular library, then configure is broken. > --enable-gssapi from cmulocal/sasl2.m4 would seem to be what > is desired, except that none of the code uses gssapi, it just uses raw > krb5.

The way it does the platform specific linker flags fu to add the runtime linker path is downright silly - it should be using CMU_ADD_LIBPATH_TO, and most probably that macro should be doing the switch on $build_host and doing guesswork only as a last resort. That could use fixing. I don't know enough about Kerberos to tell whether any of the rest of it is sane, but it sounds like you know enough to fix it? Patches are always welcome. -- Greg.
