Description

./configure --enable-gss cannot find on Debian Wheezy AMD64/x86_64 the file libgssapi_krb5.so although it exists
in the directory /usr/lib/x86_x64-linux-gnu. Probably some other AMD64/x86_64 Linux distributions are effected as well. By simply adding the following line in the file "configure"
(after line number: 11408)
...
-f $dir/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgssapi_krb5.so -o \
...

one can easily fix this problem. A trivial patch is attached.
