Some further testing suggests that `jaasLogin=false` on it's own works well if you have a default setup (`user@DEFAULT_REALM` as principal, file-based ccache).  Adding the `gssUseDefaultCreds=true` doesn't change the way that works much - with all defaults, this code will acquire the same creds in each branch of the conditional - either by using the hard-coded principal name and calling `createCredential`, or just setting it to null and letting the Kerberos system libs figure it out:
```
        if (gssUseDefaultCreds) {
          clientCreds = manager.createCredential(GSSCredential.INITIATE_ONLY);
        } else {
          GSSName clientName = manager.createName(principalName, GSSName.NT_USER_NAME);
          clientCreds = manager.createCredential(clientName, 8 * 3600, desiredMechs,
              GSSCredential.INITIATE_ONLY);
        }
```
Anyway, just thought it was worth mentioning!
