This is a trivial (2 line) change to increase the size of a native
buffer being passed to InitializeSecurityContext. We have seen reports
of InitializeSecurityContext failing with SEC_E_INSUFFICIENT_MEMORY,
given the needed buffer size depends on Windows domain size, DNS domain
name, client computer name size, server computer size, user name size, etc.

This fix is deliberately conservative as I would like to get it into 7u6
also. It may be that this area could do with some refactoring and better
error checking in the future, but I'd like to keep this change as is to
address the specific issue.
