Ah, actually, I don't expect them to work well at all; in fact, in the current sources, they'll just report errors and refuse to configure the tree. We've made some changes that assume you're using shared libraries; the plugin support is part of it, but it's also let us simplify some of the library-building configuration a little. You can try doing static-only builds, but I doubt they'll work, and they're not going to be a high priority for us to fix. That said, if you or someone else would like to take a look at making static builds work again, get some discussion going on the krbdev list on whether plugins need to work, if it's sufficient for non-KDC programs only to work, how best to deal with the AIX configs where static and shared libraries have the same suffix, etc., and let's see how clean the patches can be made. (IMNSHO, the existing library build rules still need more cleanup; don't make that harder.)
