Er, well, shoot - it turns out there's a bug in pam-auth-update's handling
of module options, that *only* affects modules with numbers in their names
(like pam_krb5) :/ I knew I wasn't imagining that I had tested this code, I
just didn't test it with this module...

I've committed the one-liner fix for this to the Debian package, and will
work on getting this into an SRU for lucid.
