I didn't try building as a separate kernel module but configuring it in
the kernel with 'options KGSSAPI' and 'device crypto' worked for me.
The kernel build didn't complain that I don't have INET6 included.

Thank you!  Might I suggest that a link to this work from the FreeBSD

going to want to know how to go about using/testing this now that it is
included in a release.
