build against Heimdal Kerberos libraries

[Jeremy Jackson]

Untested but shows no problems when recompiling libgnomevfs2-extra (dpkg-buildpkg) with heimdal-dev instead of MIT on Feisty. Changing dependency on krb5-dev to "krb5-dev | heimdal-dev" in debian/control would be a first step. My ultimate goal is Heimdal's in-memory credentials cache (which is working with the above changes) which could enable a user session Identity Manager.

I would like to see heimdal as the default build but I'm sure there will be more discussion first. At least being able to say it *can* build with heimdal will help when enumerating packages that need to be migrated.

Thank you for your bug. Could you explain why you think build with heimdal would be better?
