Thanks Michael,

I've always suspected that fixing PYTHONHASHSEED to 1 was only part of
the fix here, and that we really should not be relying on that
entirely.  However getting things close to upstream was always the
first step needed.

I think what we have were is the war of the build systems, brought up
in 2022 because we now import the whole Heimdal tree, not just some of
it.  

I've checked, and in the past the file didn't exist, it came in as
lib/gssapi/gssapi.h in 40b65c840e03bd5eb7f3b02fe80144650c63c005

Likewise it seems the stragely named lib/gssapi/gssapi/gssapi.h was
added upstream by:

        * mech/mech_locl.h: Include <roken.h>.


So the (time expensive) fix could be to work out how to remove the
'tripple gssapi' upstream, finding out if automake still requires this.

Otherwise, we need to find a way to depend on the .c files in
lib/gssapi but not the .h files or perhaps it might be as simple as
adding a empty subsystem to get the include path of lib/gssapi/gssapi/.

Either way, I agree there is a real bug here, we just need to stop
papering it over.

As always, I'm glad to provide more advice and review,
