[krbdev.mit.edu #6636] Segfault with unused pkinit

I have three kdc servers running 1.7. Every one of them goes down several
times a day with a segfault. Looking at the logs, the last thing I see every
time is "preauth pkinit failed to initialize: No realms configured correctly
for pkinit support".
I disabled pkinit when I compiled them, so I'm not entirely sure what is going
on there. It appears to be one person at a time who is doing something
unordinary, and failing over from one server to the next, and killing them off
somehow.
Anyway, a back trace looks like this:
klog_com_err_proc (whoami=0xbfd2df4b "krb5kdc", code=-1765328141, format=0x0,
ap=0xbfd2bbac "�G\f\b0�ҿ") at logger.c:221
221 if ((((unsigned char) *format) > 0) && (((unsigned char) *format) <= 8)) {
(gdb) bt

To me it looks like maybe kdc_err(kdc_context, retval, 0); at do_tgs_req.c:1161
accidentally passed what it wanted *format to equal, which was 0. Whatever the plan was for format, it doesn't seem to appreciate being dereferenced.
