Hi Achim,

have you been able to reproduce this yet? If not, you might be interested 
to hear that I've been poking at the not-ok GSSAPI::Status object a bit. 
Here, $status consistently stringifies as

'Unspecified GSS failure.  Minor code may provide more information
Success
'

with $status->major being 851968 and $status->minor: 100001 (no idea 
where those numbers come from... 0xD0000 and 0x186A1, respectively). The 
Kerberos library is MIT Kerberos version 1.10 beta1 (r25646).

I have zero understanding of Kerberos, but "Unspecified failure ... 
Success" sounds weird. A little further up in t/inquire_cred.t it says 
'This tests only work if user has run kinit succesfully', and that's 
something which I haven't done manually and which certainly hasn't been 
done in the "cleanroom" build chroots where this error was originally 
observed. So perhaps the SKIP condition isn't precise enough any more?

Florian
