[PATCH (sort of)] Portable openssh-7.9-p1 build with Kerberos.

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), so "#define HAVE_KRB5_FREE_ERROR_MESSAGE" had 
to be added manually to config.h.

- /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, 
although (obviously) the file does not apply to an OpenBSD build. To fix 
this, the #ifdef _AIX had to be moved further up.



I'm attaching a patch with the changes.  Naturally these have to be 
worked into the build-system itself, but I'm lacking the expertise to 
even understand where to start.
