That is expected.  What is not expected, in this variant, is that
gss_init_sec_context() will succeed by itself once the client believes
the TGT and service ticket to have expired.  Apologies for any
miscommunication on this point.

There may be something in the calling code which refreshes the TGT in
this situation.  If so, then to fully understand the scenario, we need
to know how the calling code decides when to refresh the TGT.

I opened a ticket about this issue here:
