 Replying to [comment:13 dom.heussi@…]:
 > So, why is there no way to build cyrus-sasl2 against the Mac OS
 X-supplied kerberos as suggested by the FAQ ?  This would resolve my
 problem easily...

 Here is a patch to the cyrus-sasl2 port that makes it build against the os
 x supplied kerberos on darwin >= 11. When configuring cyrus-sasl2 on
 darwin >= 11, you must still set --with-gss_impl=mit. Kerberos and GSSAPI
 libraries found in /usr on seem to follow naming conventions normally used
 by mit kerberos even though they are really heimdal versions.

 This patch is a work around for any ports dependent on cyrus-sasl2 (for
 those that don't want to wait for these other issues to be resolved). By
 linking cryus-sasl2 against the system kerberos libs (in /usr), ports
 dependent on cyrus-sasl2 will work properly with the system managed
 credential cache (/usr/bin/{kinit, klist, kdestroy}). I don't believe that
 this a the proper long term solution. This does nothing to address any
 issues that currently exist for ports that link directly against kerberos.
 I believe that once #36811, then all kerberos dependent ports (including
 cyrus-sasl2) need to be setup to link against the proper version of
 kerberos for any given host system as outlined in the description of this
 ticket.
