Support for Kerberos tickets in the Java filter was added in version 3.0. I 
can't say whether backporting those changes is worth your time, but I should 
remind you that all versions of cosign prior to 3.0 have a flaw permitting 
session fixation attacks. I encourage you to upgrade to cosign 3 as soon as 
possible.
