postgresql84 does not support GSSAPI authentication

[roberto@…]

According to PostgreSQL upstream documentation, the krb5 (Kerberos V5) authentication type has been deprecated in favor of the gss (GSSAPI) authentication (which defaults to using Kerberos). In any event, trying to connect to a PostgreSQL server that is set to gss instead of krb5 results in this:

$ psql84 -h dbsrv -l
psql84: GSSAPI authentication not supported

Please enable GSSAPI in the postgresql84 port

Incidentally, I did search first. The terms I used were "postgresql84 gssapi" and that ticket did not come up in the three pages of search results. But it is good to know that it is already reported.
