yes, mostly it makes use of the uppercase constants of GSS_BLA style.

Is there any reason not to use this constants instead the older
lower case constants in the GSSAPI module?

Does that break usage of older GSSAPI versions that do not define that 
constants? (At a minimum i have to document this in the readme file
and make the Makefile.PL warn or complain)

Thank you,
