Yes, the less different settings there are the better. :) Committed to  
v1.2 tree:

I'm beginning to wonder about the logging in the code though. To me it  
looks like all of these should rather be log_debug instead of  
log_info. And I don't see any log_infos for logging why the user login  
actually failed (does gssapi even tell anything about it?). Or debug  
logging about what the usernames are when trying to log in. And the  
GSSAPI errors probably should be logged with log_info instead of  
log_error, because they probably aren't errors that the sysadmin can  
do anything about, but rather some client misconfiguration or a client  
bug (at least after the initial configuration is done and working).

Any thoughts on those issues?
