I should point out that my patches don't introduce the use of krb5i here, they just fix it.

I personally don't think it's weird for the client to use a *more* secure flavor for certain (infrequent) operations when it makes sense. What worries me that currently sec=krb5p can cross a SECINFO boundary and suddenly be using sec=sys!

I'm testing patches that fix that now and also allow multiple sec= options (in the same form as nfsd exports, i.e. sec=krb5:krb5i, but I'm trying to fix all the recent regressions surrounding auth flavors / SECINFO first...
