Those variables are now marked with AC_ARG_VAR(), so they should display
useful information in the configure help output at least.  For a while
they weren't this way, because of old autoconfs still in use.

(The way it works is that if a krb5-config script is being used, it
overrides KRB5CFLAGS and KRB5LIBS; if one is not being used, either the
environment settings or what is given on the autoconf command line for
those variables is used).
