What enctypes are actually supported by OpenAFS 1.6.1?

I recently upgraded from 1.4 to 1.6.1 (in Debian Wheezy) by a new
install. There are several computers: a Heimdal 1.6 kdc, a 1.6.1 afs
service, and some Linux and Windows 7 clients.

An afs principal with (only) a des-cbc-md5 key works fine with Linux
clients. But the Heimdal 1.5.1 for Windows refuses to get afs tokens
based on that.

After replacing afs principal with one having only a des-cbc-crc key
(and extracting a new KeyFile etc) both Linux and Windows clients work
fine. 

Why is this so?
