I wasn't aware of that.  It should be easy to patch, but in the
meantime, you can try something like this in .bashrc or whatever:

krb5cc_uid="/tmp/krb5cc_$(id -u)"
if [ -n "${KRB5CCNAME}" -a "${KRB5CCNAME}" != "${krb5ccuid}" ] ; then
        if mv "${KRB5CCNAME}" "${krb5ccuid}" ; then
                export KRB5CCNAME="${krb5ccuid}"
        else        
                echo "Unable to rename krb5 credential cache" >&2
        fi
fi
unset krb5ccuid
