Hi,

I'm not quite sure but it probably means that postgresql was not built with
kerberos 5 support.
That would make sense if  you are using a binary install (did not compile
from source), because of the notice at
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/interactive/auth-methods.html#KERBEROS-AUTH
"Note: Native Kerberos authentication has been deprecated and should be used
only for backward compatibility. New and upgraded installations are
encouraged to use the industry-standard GSSAPI authentication method (see
Section 19.3.3) instead."

hth,
