I think the problem is that the global var. defined in -lgssapi doesn't
get used by the app. so the .o file in -lgssapi where it's defined doesn't
get loaded. (Can't remember the exact name, but it's something like
GSS_C_HOST_BASED_NAME.) Then, when -lgssapi-spengo gets loaded, it can't
resolve it. (I don't know enough about dynamic linking to know the
correct way to fix this. The patch I suggested got it working...)
