Please sync krb5 1.12.1+dfsg-6 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:
  * Merge from Debian unstable.  Remaining changes:
    - debian/rules: force -O2 to work around build failure with -O3
      on ppc64el (see

The reason the package does not build with -O3 is that at -O3 gcc detects some potentially uninitialized variables.
Gcc seems to be incorrect about this, but I've included debian-local/0018-Quick-and-dirty-fix-to-building-O3.patch
to initialize these variables.
With this patch the package builds -O3 and so the delta can be dropped.

I'd like to get the changes into utopic to fix LP: 1347147 and to
include the CVE fixes.


Changelog entries since current utopic version 1.12.1+dfsg-3ubuntu1:

krb5 (1.12.1+dfsg-6) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Benjamin Kaduk ]
  * Apply upstream's patch to switch to TAILQ macros instead of CIRCLEQ macros,
    to work around an issue with certain gcc versions.  This is expected to
    resolve Ubuntu bug (LP: #1347147).

  [ Sam Hartman ]
  * Include a quick and dirty patch so we build cleanly with -O3 fixing
    incorrect may be uninitialized warnings.
