Edemic enforcement of unwanted security technologies propagates further on.

Port net/p5-perl-ldap requires port security/p5-Authen-SASL,
which by defaul turns ON kerberos support.
This brings situation, when
private key infrastructure (PKI) software by default depends from Kerberos,
which is as if: nginx depends from apache.
