* We now install the compile_et program, so other packages can use the

* The header files we install now assume ANSI/ISO C ('89, not '99).
We have stopped testing on SunOS 4, even with gcc. Some of our code
may be necessary when talking to Microsoft KDCs (domain controllers),
if they issue you tickets with lots of PAC data.

- locally, you can use the --with-system-et and --with-system-ss

- to those we supply; in particular, some older, divergent versions of
