JDK-6207154 - Support for RC4-HMAC-MD5 encryption type in Kerberos
Description
Currently Java GSS/Kerberos supports DES and 3DES. Support for AES will be 
integrated shortly. 

We need to add support RC4 encryption type.

Microsoft makes heavy use of RC4-HMAC, which is not an official
standard, though there is a draft that describes how they used it.   
They choose RC4 for speed and because it has been around for a long time. 
MIT/Solaris have also added support for RC4-HMAC.

Customers on Windows would like to use RC4-HMAC with Java Kerberos.
Hence the requirement.
