This unconditionally replaces the principal even when canonicalization
is not requested. Shouldn't this replace be conditional on
KRB5_KDB_FLAGS_ALIAS_OK being set ?

Simo.


It's not obvious from first look but it actually depends on the KRB5_KDB_FLAGS_ALIAS_OK. When KRB5_KDB_FLAGS_ALIAS_OK is true the 'found' variable is the result of case-insensitive comparison.
When it's false 'found' variable is the result of case-sensitive comparison.
In case of case-sensitive match we're replacing the principal with the exactly same value though effectively not changing it.
