Unfortunately, it's somewhat more complicated that that, due to a
combination of the need to maintain backwards compatibility with non-krb5
rxkad implementations (otherwise, you wouldn't be able to talk to servers
in a non-krb5 cell) and various other factors.  The "hooks" that appear to
be present in rxkad are simply not enough.
