Yup, openssl was calling krb5.h and not finding it:

In file included from /usr/include/openssl/ssl.h:179,
                 from SSLLib.cpp:52:
/usr/include/openssl/kssl.h:72:18: krb5.h: No such file or directory
In file included from /usr/include/openssl/ssl.h:179,
                 from SSLLib.cpp:52:
/usr/include/openssl/kssl.h:134: 'krb5_enctype' is used as a type, but is not
   defined as a type.

I just checked an RHEL4 build and it puts krb5.h in /usr/include.
