      Support for SPNEGO mechansim in Java GSS ( Mustang feature 263 ).

      Java GSS is a framework that can support multiple security mechanisms;
      a way to negotiate a security mechanism underneath GSS-API is needed.
      We need to implement SPNEGO (Simple and Protected GSS-API Negotiation
      Mechanism) to provide this feature, as specified by IETF in RFC 2478.

      SPNEGO is a pseudo GSS security mechanism to enable a client and server
      to securely negotiate a common GSS security mechanism to be used.
