When using GSSAPI and KfW, you need to set a couple of environment
variables for libpq to pick up on which indicate it should use GSSAPI
rather than SSPI (standard Windows Kerberos/AD stuff):

PGGSSLIB = gssapi

and you'll probably also want:

PGKRBSRVNAME = postgres

Just set those through your computer settings, probably system wide on
the systems in question.

Since it defaults to upper-case POSTGRES on Windows, but if you're
running KfW, I'm guessing you're using just regular MIT/Kerberos and
using 'postgres/hostname.domain@REALM'.

	Enjoy!
