I found the kadmin problem.  It turns out that there are many assumptions
in the admin code to the effect that KRB_MASTER (defined in krb.h) and
KADM_SINST (defined in kadm.h) are the same.  When I defined KADM_SINST
to be the same as KRB_MASTER, everything works ok.

Someone who sets KRB_MASTER to a fully qualified domain hostname will
probably have difficulties.  I believe the correct fix is that the
places using KRB_MASTER as a changepw instance should be KADM_SINST
instead.
