build.log from "ebuild libgsasl-1.8.0.ebuild configure"

When USE=kerberos the libgsasl-1.8.0 ebuild simply passes --enable-gssapi to the configure script. Unfortunately without --with-gssapi-impl=IMPL (where IMPL is one of "gss", "mit", or "heimdal") *only* libgss is checked. On a system with MIT or Heimdal krb5 this causes GSSAPI support to be disabled:

configure: checking for GSS implementation (yes)
configure: auto-detecting GSS/MIT/Heimdal
configure: use --with-gssapi-impl=IMPL to hard code
configure: where IMPL is `gss', `mit', or `heimdal'
checking for libgss... no
configure: WARNING: GNU GSS not found (see http://www.gnu.org/software/gss/)...
configure: WARNING: Auto-detecting MIT/Heimdal is unreliable, disabling GSSAPI

I noticed this because I use GSSAPI with msmtp and it was complaining that its underlying auth library (libgsasl) didn't have gssapi support compiled in even though I had USE=kerberos for libgsasl.
