I'm not to deep into this, but as far as I can see, man krb5 doesn't list 
krb5_sendauth it it's list of provided funtions, however postgres' 
configure.in is checking for that:

if test "$with_krb5" = yes ; then
  if test "$PORTNAME" != "win32"; then
     AC_SEARCH_LIBS(com_err, [krb5 'krb5 -ldes -lasn1 -lroken' com_err], [],
                    [AC_MSG_ERROR([could not find function 'com_err' required 
fo
r Kerberos 5])])
     AC_SEARCH_LIBS(krb5_sendauth, [krb5 'krb5 -ldes -lasn1 -lroken'], [],
                    [AC_MSG_ERROR([could not find function 'krb5_sendauth' 
requi
red for Kerberos 5])])
  else
     AC_SEARCH_LIBS(com_err, 'comerr32 -lkrb5_32', [],
                    [AC_MSG_ERROR([could not find function 'com_err' required 
fo
r Kerberos 5])])
  fi
fi

This seems to have been introduced somewhere in postgresql 7.1/7.2 or 
whatever.

Has heimdal somehow renamed that function in the past couple of versions or is 
there any other clue to go?
