auth_level and require_secure_login were defined in two places:
- global.c that picked it from headers and removed 'extern'
- telnetd.c that initialized it to 0
line was defined twice: in global.c and sys_term.c with a non-zero value.
Remove the definition and initialization from sys_term.c and initialize
the variable early in main().
Detected during the build of telned with Address Sanitizer (MKSANITIZER).

Originally, MKCRYPTO was introduced because the United States
classified cryptography as a munition and restricted its export. The
export controls were substantially relaxed fifteen years ago, and are
essentially irrelevant for software with published source code.
In the intervening time, nobody bothered to remove the option after
its motivation -- the US export restriction -- was eliminated. I'm
not aware of any other operating system that has a similar option; I
expect it is mainly out of apathy for churn that we still have it.
Today, cryptography is an essential part of modern computing -- you
can't use the internet responsibly without cryptography.
The position of the TNF board of directors is that TNF makes no
representation that MKCRYPTO=no satisfies any country's cryptography
regulations.
My personal position is that the availability of cryptography is a
basic human right; that any local laws restricting it to a privileged
few are fundamentally immoral; and that it is wrong for developers to
spend effort crippling cryptography to work around such laws.
As proposed on tech-crypto, tech-security, and tech-userlevel to no

P.S. Reviewing all the uses of MKCRYPTO in src revealed a lot of
*bad* crypto that was conditional on it, e.g. DES in telnet... That
should probably be removed too, but on the grounds that it is bad,
not on the grounds that it is (nominally) crypto.
with MKPIC=no, possibly because the target does not support shared
libraries, these include libraries required to resolve all symbols
which end up referenced from PAM-using applications. The libraries
presently required are -lcrypt, -lrpcsvc and -lutil.
Add use of these variables which are currently set up to use PAM,
so that they compile when MKPIC=no.
Also, in the telnetd case, reorder the order of the libraries, so
that libtelnet.a comes before -ltermcap and -lutil, again to fix
link error when MKPIC=no.
Discussed with thorpej and christos.
and without Kerberos 4 & 5 (MKKERBEROS=no). Previously checkflist
complained of missing files.
* move kerberos- and kerberos 4-only files into new flists,
distrib/sets/lists/*/krb.*
* make the flist generators grok MKKERBEROS{,4} variables
* fix Makefiles which treat MKKERBEROS=no as MKKERBEROS5=no.
9 out of 10 experts agree that it is ludicrous to build w/
KERBEROS4 and w/o KERBEROS5.
* fix header files, also, which treat MKKERBEROS=no as MKKERBEROS5=no.
* omit some Kerberos-only subdirectories from the build as
MKKERBEROS{,4} indicate
(I acknowledge the sentiment that flists are the wrong way to go,
and that the makefiles should produce the metalog directly. That
sounds to me like the right way to go, but I am not prepared to do
revamp all the makefiles. While my approach is expedient, it fits
painlessly within the current build architecture until we are
delivered from flist purgatory, and it does not postpone our
delivery. Fair enough?)
