You may only see problems if you use your kaserver as a kerberos v4 kdc.
If you only use Transarc's unix AFS or the newer kalog from Arla, you
don't see any problems because you never use that part of the code. Or
it is fixed in your version. To really know, you have to

1) Attach a debugger to the kaserver process and set the
   krb_udp_debug variable

2) Authenticate with a v4 client

3) Have a look at the kaserver logfile:

Processing APPL Request
UGetTicket: got ticket from 'haba'.''@''
Sending error packet to 'haba'.''@'' containing code = 180504: Unknown code ka 24 
(180504)

The second line should be: UGetTicket: got ticket from 'haba'.''@'MYREALM.COM'

But as I said earlier, someone who is really using kaserver (I'm not,
running Heimdal here) and wants it working should have a look at the
src in openafs, fix the possible buffer overruns so you don't need to
run a broken kaserver.
