I don't know much about Kerberos, but:

Nov 26 15:12:27 housigma20 dovecot: auth-worker(default): pam(linuxt,127.0.0.1): pam_authenticate() failed: Permission denied

PAM plugin fails by giving "Permission denied" error. Perhaps PAM's own logs would show something more? /var/log/auth.log or something similar.

dovecot-auth processes are running as root anyway I guess? Then there really shouldn't be any permission problems, so I guess it's some kind of a PAM/Kerberos misconfiguration.
