+not run by default.  You might need to adjust some paths in the test

FWIW it passes for me if I add this:

+       $krb5_sbin_dir = '/usr/local/sbin';
+}

One thing that surprised me is that your test runs my system's
installed psql command out of my $PATH, not the one under test.  Is
that expected?
