[zeromq-dev] GSSAPI/Kerberos ZeroMQ

[Pieter Hintjens]

Ah, I see you check in configure.ac if libgssapi_krb5 is available.

Looks nice. Code looks clean. I really like it...

One small thing, CZMQ switched to an MPLv2 license so before you send
a pull request, please rebase off the current master (the file headers
will all change).
