Is there opposition to removing this code?
I'm starting to like the idea of running AFS in its own micro-realm
and having all users be cross-realm users. It cuts down a lot on
administrative overhead (asking for favors from kdc admins when stuff
changes) and keeps the username namespace nice and tidy without
unduely favoring one institution or department over another.
