I think I just meant the discussion on "how to make firefox on linux do
spnego" bits as being OT. Maybe that is not even OT. Seemed it to me,
but I am just a newcomer though.

Indeed. And it can be done, I think, by adding native KRB5 support to
ntlm_auth (right now ntlm_auth assumes everything will be wrapped in
SPNEGO), but it would be less hacking there if Firefox could be
convinced to use SPNEGO on non-windows platform, even when all it has
are KRB5 (or any other non MS specific) credentials.
