Thanks for noticing.  I will update the Secure Endpoints packages.
Unfortunately, I'm not allowed to distribute them publicly.  Only
support customers will be able to get them.

None of these DLLs are required to get AFS tokens at logon.  AFS tokens
are obtained using afslogon.dll which is shipped as part of OpenAFS and
afslogon.dll does link against krbcc64.dll.

32-bit KFW libraries are only required if you are using 32-bit Kerberos
applications to obtain your AFS tokens.  For example, if you need to use
the 32-bit version of Network Identity Manager because you need krb524
support.
