What we do here is something like this, which should work for 3.0
(assuming that part of the code hasn't changed, still need to test
that):

passwd kerberos ([...@]+) $1 BX.PSU.EDU

I tried to do something fancy like you had above and just match with
something like

passwd kerberos (.+)@BX.PSU.EDU $1 BX.PSU.EDU

but gave up as backrefs didn't quite seem to be working correctly

We also have some javascript that appends the realm to the login
variable before submitting, which plays into our use of a drop-down
dialog to allow the user to select the realm to login to. You could
probably do something similar to strip off your 'default' realm before
submission if the user inputs that.
