You can't really do that.  If the PostgreSQL libraries expose any of the
underlying Kerberos libraries, you can't just replace MIT Kerberos with
Heimdal after the fact.  Things won't compile.

(Although a more basic question is why the libpq-dev package depends on
libkrb5-dev, and if it's just libtool transitive dependencies or static
library dependencies or something more useful.)
