These patches have been reasonably tested (and cross-tested) on
Solaris 9 (SPARC) and MacOS 10.4 (both G4 and Intel) with the native
GSSAPI libraries.  They implement the gss-np and (incompletely) the
gss authentication methods.  Unlike the current krb5 method gssapi
has native support in Java and (with the SSPI) on Windows.

I still have bugs in the security layer for the gss method.
Hopefully will finish getting them ironed out today or tomorrow.

Documentation is in the README.GSSAPI file.  Make sure you get it
created when you apply the patches.
