Great.

Can you post this as a merge request to
https://salsa.debian.org/samba-team/samba?

Ideally, the package should be buildable with a classical:
  gbp buildpackage --git-pbuilder --git-arch=amd64 --git-dist=sid

There is no plan yet. Why do you want this? Currently the MIT build
lacks some features [1], and this is not the default upstream. We can
revisit our used Kerberos implementation, but we won't have both (the
team is understaffed).
