Because it was compiled without Kerberos support?  Because it was
compiled with -march=YOUR_MACHINE and optimized for your installation?
A dozen things could be different ;)

What you get when you install a X.Y-RELEASE can be reproduced by
rolling your own release with:

        make release

(Well, you might want to set a few things in the environment first,
but this is the basic command.) So, there's nothing ``hidden'' in
there that you can't see, and check for yourself ;-)
