Unfortunately that expiry time seems to be a signed 32-bit integer in
both the kernel<->gss-proxy and the gss-proxy<->krb5 interfaces.

I guess we'll have to come to an agreement with the krb5 developers.

Simplest might be to agree that the thing's unsigned.  The expiry
shouldn't ever need to be decades in the future, so unsigned mod 2^32
arithmetic should work forever.
