--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ChangeLog:

* Tue Jan 21 2014 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com> - 1.11.3-39
- pull in upstream patch to fix the GSSAPI library's checks for expired
  client creds in gss_init_sec_context() so that they work with keyring
  caches (RT#7820, #1030607)
* Tue Jan 21 2014 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com>
- pull in and backport multiple changes to allow replay caches to be added to
  a GSS credential store as "rcache"-type credentials (RT#7818/#7819/#7836,
* Thu Dec 19 2013 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com> - 1.11.3-38
- pull in fix from master to make reporting of errors encountered by the SPNEGO
  mechanism work better (RT#7045, part of #1043962)
* Thu Dec 19 2013 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com>
- update a test wrapper to properly handle things that the new libkrad does,
  and add python-pyrad as a build requirement so that we can run its tests
* Wed Dec 18 2013 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com> - 1.11.3-37
- backport fixes to krb5_copy_context (RT#7807, #1044735/#1044739)
* Wed Dec 18 2013 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com> - 1.11.3-36
- backport fix to avoid double-freeing in the client when we're configured
  to use a clpreauth module that isn't actually a clpreauth module (#1035203)
* Wed Dec 18 2013 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com> - 1.11.3-35
- pull in fix from master to return a NULL pointer rather than allocating
  zero bytes of memory if we read a zero-length input token (RT#7794, part of
  - pull in fix from master to ignore an empty token from an acceptor if
  we've already finished authenticating (RT#7797, part of #1043962)
- pull in fix from master to avoid a memory leak when a mechanism's
  init_sec_context function fails (RT#7803, part of #1043962)
- pull in fix from master to avoid a memory leak in a couple of error
  cases which could occur while obtaining acceptor credentials (RT#7805, part
  of #1043962)
* Tue Dec 17 2013 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com> - 1.11.3-34
- backport additional changes to libkrad to make it function more like
  the version in upstream 1.12, and a few things in the OTP plugin as well
  (most visibly, that the secret that's shared with the RADIUS server is read
  from a file rather than used directly) (#1040056)
