9) Can I compile PostgreSQL with Kerberos v5 support?

Yes, Kerberos is integrated in OpenSolaris and will be integrated in

Solaris 10u4. Kerberos v5 support is implemented by the GSS security

library which contains Kerberos v5 functions. However, the library is

private and the interface might change without notice.
