James,  thank you for your reply.
This sounds like good news for me; I can stay planted in the accepted
CentOS repo. biosphere.

I installed bind-9.9.4 package from the CentOS repo.
I've been reading the Changes and Readme file but don't see where this
issue is addressed.

Can you point me to the centOS announcements or release notes that deal
with the bind package and gss-spnego.
I'd like to try to understand and possibly aggregate the right info to send
to the samba wiki maintainers.

named -V on the installed package produces:

BIND 9.9.4-RedHat-9.9.4-18.el7_1.1 (Extended Support Version) <id:8f9657aa>
built with '--build=x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu'
'--host=x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu' '--program-prefix='
'--disable-dependency-tracking' '--prefix=/usr' '--exec-prefix=/usr'
'--bindir=/usr/bin' '--sbindir=/usr/sbin' '--sysconfdir=/etc'

<<<SNIP>>>

'--with-gssapi=yes' '--disable-isc-spnego'

using OpenSSL version: OpenSSL 1.0.1e 11 Feb 2013
using libxml2 version: 2.9.1
END

Does the above output show that gss-spnego is actually enabled?
Thanks for your help.
