We have had reports of a problem with sshd segfaulting when compiled
with both --with-pam and --with-kerberos5=[mitkrb5]. It segfaults deep
inside the Solaris pam_krb5 module. Omit either PAM or krb5 support
and it will work fine.
The bug record is here:

Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
