Are there any problems with --with-krb5 left? Otherwise I'd like to change
the default to auotmatically use heimdal if it is present.


My biggest concern (initially raised by Ronnie) is that all Heimdal
libraries are currently linked into libethereal rather than just
into the final executables (e.g. [t]ethereal). Can't/shouldn't we
change this?

OTOH, since Heimdal libs are usually static and libethereal is shared,
there may be some memory savings with the current approach.

Thoughts?
