Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: evolution-mapi
When configuring the MAPI bridge for Evolution on a machine that uses
Kerberos 5, everything works if I use the server's IP address, but it
crashes if I use the server's name. This seems to be due to the process
linking both libkrb5.so.3 and libgensec.so.0, which have identically
named exports with different ABIs.
For example, the first place it crashes is due to libgensec.so.0 calling
libkrb5.so.3's krb5_appdefault_string(): The Samba version of this
function allows a NULL def_value (default value) parameter, but the
Kerberos 5 version crashes because it tries to strdup() the NULL pointer
(and strdup(NULL) has undefined behavior according to the C standard).

#7 0x00007fffdd913c15 in cli_credentials_get_named_ccache () from
/usr/lib/libgensec.so.0
This first crash can be worked around by adding ticket_lifetime and
renew_lifetime values to the [appdefaults] section of /etc/krb5.conf.
The second place it crashes is a short while later, and does not appear
amenable to a workaround:
#0 0x00007fffdd9ce26c in krb5_get_init_creds_opt_set_addressless () from
/usr/lib/libgensec.so.0
#1 0x00007fffdd9cdf63 in krb5_get_init_creds_opt_set_default_flags () from
/usr/lib/libgensec.so.0
#2 0x00007fffdd90ba9d in kerberos_kinit_password_cc () from
/usr/lib/libgensec.so.0

#4 0x00007fffdd913c15 in cli_credentials_get_named_ccache () from
/usr/lib/libgensec.so.0
Judging from the assembly code, the line that faults is this one from
samba4/heimdal/lib/krb5/init_creds.c:
opt->opt_private->addressless = KRB5_INIT_CREDS_TRISTATE_TRUE;
where the "opt" struct appears to use the definition and layout from
libkrb5.so.3, which is missing several fields that the Samba library
expects (opt_private being one of them).
