Patch like this makes it all work:

but that is a cop out ofcourse. In MIT KfW 3.0 this might be fixed, I'm
using 2.6.5 the previous release. We'll install this hopefully and I
will check the code then. So this patch can just be documented in the
INSTALL. I'd rather key this off a version define then WIN32, but I
don't see anything suitable in gssapi*.h to use. Mmmmm.
