I believe you can simplify that to:

[capaths]
  R1 = {
    R3 = R2
    R2 = .
  }
  R2 = {
    R1 = .
    R3 = .
  }
  R3 = {
    R1 = R2
    R2 = .
  }

"." means "these two realms share keys directly", and there's never a
need to look up {capaths, Rn, Rn}.

That's a previously unknown bug introduced in krb5 1.9.  I think it's
gone unnoticed until now because an MIT KDC at R2 will paper over the
problem by returning krbtgt/R3@R2 in response to the krbtgt/R3@R1
request.

I can provide a patch (it's a one-liner), but since you're using an OS
distribution of krb5 I imagine it wouldn't be convenient to use.
Unfortunately, I can't think of a good workaround.  The fix should be in
1.9.2.
