[I had sent this patch already in April, but the message was lost or ignored.]

From Gentoo Bug 215558, <http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215558>:
Emacs 22.2 (or rather movemail / pop.c) can only be build with MIT
Kerberos but not with Heimdal.

Briefly (credits to Michael Hammer):

> Here is the definition of the krb5_error struct in mit-krb5 which
> seems compatible with emacs-22.2:

> typedef struct _krb5_error {
>     [...]
>     krb5_data text;                     /* descriptive text */
>     krb5_data e_data;                   /* additional error-describing data */
> } krb5_error;

> and here is the heimdal code. You can see that the struct members
> are named differently: 

> typedef struct KRB_ERROR {
>   [...]
>   heim_general_string *e_text;
>   heim_octet_string *e_data;
> } KRB_ERROR;

> You can see the difference:

> krb5_data text; <-> heim_general_string *e_text;
> ---
> text <-> e_text

Attached patch will make pop.c properly compile/link with the Heimdal
headers and library.

For the MIT-Kerberos case the resulting code is equivalent, so I think
that this should be included into the Emacs 22 branch.
