Yeah, that's a pretty scary situation for security-critical software.
Maybe we should just desupport Heimdal, rather than investing effort
to the contrary?

Also, the core-code versions of Heimdal in these BSDen are even scarier
than the upstream releases, so I'm thinking that the fact that we
currently compile against them is more a net negative than a positive.
(Same logic as for macOS, really.)

IOW, maybe it'd be okay to de-revert 3d4fa227b and add documentation
saying that --with-gssapi requires MIT Kerberos not Heimdal.
