2nd round RFR 8036779: sun.security.krb5.KdcComm interprets kdc_timeout asmsec instead of sec

[Xuelei Fan]

Looks fine to me.  A minor comment about the coding conversions.

src/share/classes/sun/security/krb5/KdcComm.java
================================================
 437         if (s == null) return -1;

I would suggest always use braces even for single line statement [1].
    if (s == null) {
        return -1;
    }
