I think the commit message is pretty clear.  Basically the subset of
people who want this re-enabled must put in time and effort to bring
the kerberos linkage in ssh back to a level that others can trust.

I have heard a few complaints that this is disabled, but I've not
heard from a single person who wants to invest that effort.

What is there now cannot be trusted.  It is below the standard we
expect in ssh.  It is a maze of crap.  If you want software that "does
what I want, and I don't care if it has hidden problems"; this is a
place that sloppy standard should not exist...
