krb5_sendauth and krb5_recvauth only work with TCP or UDP connections,
according to what I can find on the net. If you think your local
implementation might not have that restriction, try diking out these
lines in src/backend/libpq/hba.c:
/* Disallow auth methods that always need TCP/IP sockets to work */
if (port->auth_method == uaKrb5)
goto hba_syntax;
and see what happens ...
