I apologize -- I was not precise with the terminology.  By `base system'
I meant the src/ tree ... e.g. FreeBSD itself, not (only) ports.

As of _right this moment_, I believe Mark has moved all of the Kerberos
bits into the `crypto' dist.  That's where we want it for 5.1-RELEASE
(as long as a `crypto' dist exists, anyway).
