Bug-ridden, yes. Languishing, no. The MIT krb5 team is currently
working towards a 1.1 release, although I don't know that they have
made any external promises of a release date yet.
(If anyone here has submitted krb5 bug reports and not gotten any
feedback, now might be a decent time to send followup mail. A new
staff member was hired to work on krb5 recently.)

This reference piques my curiosity, but further discussion of it
probably doesn't belong on any of these mailing lists.
