Just for reference, should anyone be interested, the following settings
in /etc/pam.d/system-auth seem to work and to hide the "Kerberos 5
Password" stage:

password    requisite     pam_cracklib.so try_first_pass retry=3
password    sufficient    pam_unix.so md5 shadow nullok try_first_pass
use_authtok
password    sufficient    pam_krb5.so use_authtok no_initial_prompt
password    required      pam_deny.so

Many thanks for the advice given on this list,

[NG]
