changes needed to build openssh-7.9p1 with heimdel kerberos on openbsd
6.4

I tried to build openssh-portable on OpenBSD 6.4 with Kerberos support
(I tried this initially because I failed to get the BSD version of
openssh to work).

The OpenBSD 6.4 had heimdal kerberos support (self built from the ports
system)

I configured as
  ./configure --with-kerberos5=/usr/local/heimdal --prefx=


There are a few minor problems in the build system:

- ports offers the krb5_free_error_message call but configure does not
detect (or check for it).

- /usr/local/lib needs to be added to the LDFLAGS because it will
contain libcom_err.a

- openbsd-compat/port-aix.c fails to compile because of header files,
so the #ifdef _AIX needs to be moved further up (obviously the file
does not apply to an OpenBSD build).


I'm attaching a patch with the changes, but obviously these have to be
worked into the build-system itself.  But I'm lacking the expertise to
even understand what would be necessary.
