Thanks for looking into this.  I'll look at it early next week.  

However, my main concern (and perhaps it isn't warranted, which is why
I'll look at it properly next week) is that currently I can replace
auth_ntlmssp_state with a GENSEC wrapper in s3compat.  Without the
intermediate structure of a different name, it may become much more
difficult to make this change.   (We had a similar problem when trying
to merge the NTLMSSP code late last year, and had to re-introduce a
wrapper structure in GENSEC).
