Oh, and the other piece I forgot to mention: you saw this start happening
in lenny because in etch pam-krb5 did blindly return PAM_SUCCESS if the
user didn't log in with a password.  This was changed in 3.11:

    pam_setcred, pam_open_session, and pam_acct_mgmt now return PAM_IGNORE
    for ignored users or non-Kerberos logins rather than PAM_SUCCESS.
    This return code tells the PAM library to continue as if the module
    were not present in the configuration and allows sufficient to be
    meaningful for pam-krb5 in account and session groups.
