This answers Lionel's question, but I'm curious for a more user impact opinion from you. Given that pgAdmin III has given up on MIT KRB5, would you feel doing the same is appropriate for LibreOffice too? It sounds like they really shouldn't take on either the build cruft or the potential security issues of pulling that in at this point.
