Top posting is widely considered bad on the FreeBSD lists, yes.

Note that Kerberos is a complicated, many-headed beast and not just in  
the mythological sense.  You might have an easier time if you choose  
which flavor you want to use, and then maybe add WITH_KERBEROS=yes and/ 
or WITH_HEIMDAL=yes to /etc/make.conf, before firing off the tree of  
builds-- that will help the various ports and options screens figure  
out which one you wanted to use more consistently.

However, it looks like Samba is looking for HEIMDAL_HOME or KRB5_HOME  
to be defined instead of using the standard WITH_ flags; arguably, the  
port maintainer dwcjr@ should be checking the WITH_ flags instead.
