The attached should (I believe?) at least add the needed check for
gssapi_ext.h which will cause builds to fail and complain about the
header being missing from their installation.
I'm certainly open to ideas about how to provide a better error message,
particularly on OSX systems which have an ancient version, to make it
clear that people need to install an updated version. I don't have an
OSX system at hand though.
Should I push this to at least address the header check ... ?
Thanks,
Stephen
