It's not the KDC that's the issue, just the libraries for the client
systems where the PAM module would be running.  And yeah, sorry, it's
only in unstable so far.

You'll run into the same problem that the existing PAM module has unless
you run the kadmin command-line client with system(), which is going to
be tricky from an authentication perspective.
