BTW, I've also been wondering why hamerkop has been failing

or so.  It is surely unrelated to this issue, and it looks like
it must be due to some platform change rather than anything we
committed at the time.

Possibly. It looks like this might be the issue:

+Connection 2 failed: could not initiate GSSAPI security context: Unspecified GSS failure.  Minor code may provide more information: Credential cache is empty
+FATAL:  sorry, too many clients already


There are several questions here, including: 

1. why isn't it failing on later branches? 
2. why isn't it failing on drongo (which has more modern compiler and OS)?

I think we'll need the help of the animal owner to dig into the issue.

Aha! drongo doesn't have GSSAPI enabled. Will work on that.
