 =46rom /usr/src/UPDATING on 5.1-RELEASE:
     20030505:
         Kerberos 5 (Heimdal) is now built by default. Setting
         MAKE_KERBEROS5 no longer has any effect. If you do NOT
         want the "base" Kerberos 5, you need to set NO_KERBEROS.
 
 I wasn't even thinking about -STABLE when I submitted the bug report.  I do=
 n't=20
 think this change applies to it.
 
 On -CURRENT, though, HEIMDAL_HOME should be set to "/usr" by default if=20
 NO_KERBEROS is not defined.
 
 Cheers,
 Eric
