Samba 4 AD includes its own KDC (based on Heimdal), but you should be able
to install the MIT krb5 client libs which are what sssd or pam_krb would
require. Otherwise, surely they would also work with the heimdal client
libs?
I don't know how gentoo packages Samba 4, so it might be more or less
tricky, but the main thing to do is avoid installing the MIT KDC.
So without mit-krb5 sssd don't compile.
