I would recommend going with CVS head (git conversion is in the works),
which has several relevant patches that would probably address some of the
bugs you've found. It's also about 2 years newer than even the 2.1.24rc1
release.

Also, as a heads up, be aware that a couple of new mechanisms have been
added:

gs2-krb5
gs2-iakerb

Which is based on some work being done within the Moonshot project:

http://www.project-moonshot.org/developers/repository

Currently those mechanisms depend on MIT Kerberos 1.9. You may need to
apply some of the more recent patches from that repository to get the newer
mechanisms working. About a month ago, I needed to apply git commit
7fef9d8d7c38f8638bad24de28f5b79251f2c00a to get them to work.
