This seems to be the case. Specifically I:

 1. Removed the ipantsecurityidentifier attribute from a user, and
    removed ipantuserattrs from the user's objectclass
 2. Tried to log in as the user & got the same failures + 'No such file
    or directory' message in /var/log/krb5kdc.log
 3. Edited /var/kerberos/krb5kdc/kdc.conf, adding 'disable_pac = true'
    within the realm-specific configuration in the realms section
 4. Restarted krb5kdc
 5. Tried to log in as the user and it worked!

The docs for disable_pac say:

    If true, the KDC will not issue PACs for this realm, and S4U2Self
    and S4U2Proxy operations will be disabled.  The default is false,
    which will permit the KDC to issue PACs.  New in release 1.20.

... which doesn't explain that if the KDC can't issue a PAC for some
reason then the KDC will fail to issue the TGT. But at least I've gotten
to the bottom of things now. :)

... "or on the same server after temporarily setting "disable_pac =
true" in kdc.conf, and restarting krb5kdc."
