OK, thanks.  I'll ask Peter B. to subscribe.

I've got new updates coming that respond to the code review comments I
collated from GitHub and some comments received here.

I've also added bindings for gss_acquire_cred_from() and
gss_store_cred_into(), which makes GssLoginModule a drop-in
replacement for Krb5LoginModule as far as functionality goes.

Using these new bindings I've been able to write a Java-coded
kinit, and a Java-coded ccache copy program.
