I see. Cygwin does include krb5 libraries. I assume it's from MIT krb5 and maybe I can ask them how they compiled it.

OK, I'll try again.
BTW, is there a configure option to force using MSVC? Now that I have gcc installed and it always choose gcc. I tried setting CC=/path/to/cl.exe but see
checking for gcc... /.../VC/bin/amd64/cl.exe
checking whether the C compiler works... no
