I think there used to be patches for this around somewhere for something
of the 1.0.x vintage, because I forward-ported them to 1.2 until I started
just using addressless tickets.  That patch took the approach of requiring
one to configure the NAT IP address in krb5.conf, which would work in some
situations.
