As mentioned before, the new release bundles a bunch of third party
libraries.  It is not clear to me if *all* things under “lib” are
external libraries or if some of them are part of the source code of
heimdal.

Can we learn from the Debian package for heimdal here?

I think we really ought to update from the very old version we are using
currently.
