Realized this wasn't completely clear.

it checks for the tolower()'d version of the auth user's cell, and then
checks
it exactly as presented. So, if you're using krb5, will check 'cell' and
'CELL', but if using straight kaserver, will likely just check the same
lowercase cell twice.

Since it isn't in a fast path, this shouldn't matter.
