I looked at zephyr.  The current version won't build without krb4.  The
new version is 3.1.2 from github.  That purports to build without krb4,
but it needed libss, which pkgsrc only provides in krb4.

So I think it's too hard to support zephyr, relative to how much people
care.  I withdrawn my request to spare it from deletion.
