[OpenAFS-devel] [OpenAFS] libafsauthent issues

I'm working on an application that uses libafsauthent indirectly.  In 
the past I was using a precompiled version of the library (an older 
version, from release 1.2. or 1.2 maybe), and everything worked fine, 
but recently I've been trying to compile my code at the same time as the 
most recent openafs release (1.3) and have been experience problems. 
 Now when I run my code I get the error:

** Can't determine local cell name!

But when I switch back to the old version of libafsauthent and 
recompile, there are no problems.

So my question is: have there been any major changes to the 
libafsauthent library recently, or is there some special thing I need to 
do in order to compile it myself correctly?  I'm using kaserver as the 
means of authentication for the cell.  I'd appreciate help from anyone 
who knows anything about this library.  Thanks.
