This is a two part patch against 7.4.5 implementing the option of
configuring what is now set using the #defined constant
No one has ever asked for a kerberos service name different from
postgres. Unless someone else says this is a useful feature, I
think we are better off leaving our code unchanged.
Kerberos is pretty complicated so adding another configuration options
isn't always a good idea.
Even though I am unsure about the feature addition, I am keeping this
for 8.1 in case someone else finds it useful.
This has been saved for the 8.1 release:

Hi
This is a two part patch against 7.4.5 implementing the option of
configuring what is now set using the #defined constant PG_KRB_SRVNAM
(the name of the service part of the kerberos principal the server
uses).
On the backend it can be configured by the (new) string option
krb_srvnam in

Is this a good idea? Offhand it just seems
