In former times, the lowest-level AFS protocol, RX, was based on a
flavor of a krb4 ticket. The big question is -- is that still the
case, or has RX changed to something more recent. If RX is still based
on those tokens, we have a chance with the fake kaserver. If that's
based on GSSAPI or something like that, we can ditch the fake kaserver
and replace it with something real. I took a brief look at OpenAFS
sources, but I could not find the hint.

Any OpenAFS developer listening here?
