forwarding tokens to other machine

I should make clear, if I haven't already that I have experimented
with tokens generated on machine A, transferred to machine B using
AFS-ised ssh 1.2.26 with KTH Kerberos-4 (in various versions);
note that in each case the token is valid on machine A:

     Token from A          Send to B          Result:

     arla 0.26             arla 0.26          token works on B
     arla 0.26             AFS 3.4a           tokens works on B
     arla 0.26             AFS 3.5            token is invalid on B
     AFS 3.4a              arla 0.26          token works on B
     AFS 3.4a              AFS 3.4a           token works on B
     AFS 3.4a              AFS 3.5            token works on B
     AFS 3.5               arla 0.26          token works on B
     AFS 3.5               AFS 3.4a           token works on B
     AFS 3.5               AFS 3.5            token works on B

So, as far as I can see, something about the arla-generated token
is unacceptable to Transarc's AFS 3.5.  The arla machines are all
running Linux 2.2.10 with arla 0.26 and kth-krb 19990508 snapshot.
The 3.4a AFS machines are running a number of operating systems,
including Irix 6.5.  The 3.5 AFS machines are running Irix 6.5.
