Hi John,
(Unfortunately, for reasons I won't go into...) We attempt to parse
the Kerberos version and use it.   It isn't handling the non-numerical
"-beta1-debian" part very well.

Is this causing problems with the build or in operation?  If not, it
can be ignored.  If so, I can probably help you get around the
problem.
