I sadly don't have any idea if the patch applies cleanly anymore to 
recent 8.STABLE - I did my testing on 8.1_PRERELEASE, where the patch 
applied cleanly. There was some talk about updating the patch when the 
problem was discussed more widely, but nothing has been realised this 
far.

I might be able to test the patch against 8.STABLE on my home system 
sometime this week - as of myself I just did some testing and 
troubleshooting back when the problem was discussed, as for myself 
having working Kerberos is still non-issue.

Of course if Kerberos functionality is critical for you, you could try 
removing Kerberos from base system using /etc.src.conf and then 
install either kerberos from ports and then linking sasl/cyrus against 
that.
