If you want krb5 callbacks to work (for example, if you want delegations
to be granted when using krb5 with NFSv4.0), then rpc.gssd needs to be
run on the server.

If rpc.gssd isn't running on the server, then I'd expect the only
symptom to be that delegations aren't given out; if you're seeing a more
serious failure than that, then that's a bug.
