If I comment it out, it's fine on FC3. The Heimdal people are using
"private" as a structure member name, so I know it's a Heimdal
problem :-).
I think you need to remove the __cplusplus change in Samba3 to make
things compile.

Samba4 has integrated Heimdal as their KDC as the architecture
is vastly easier to integrate than the MIT codebase (having
the Heimdal author help with this also hasn't hurt :-).

Having said that no major vendor is currently planning to ship
Heimdal as their KDC code so it'll have to eventually be made
to work with MIT. No easy answers I'm afraid :-).

Should we make this only for --enable-developer, given we don't control
what may be in system headers?

In terms of 'user experience', the administrator shouldn't see
either
the MIT or Heimdal administration tools, and we are a fair way off from
even relying on system libs (so installing the right thing won't be a
concern).  As such, you won't see very much of either, except if you
start looking carefully at the code.

It does make my life easier :-)
