rhel6.7 already contains sufficient version of sssd
sssd-1.12.4-4x.el6

It just does not contain separate prompting for password and token.

I'm also not aware of dependency on special feature from libkrb5 on sssd side.
At least, we do not detect it at compile time.

SSSD is not a blocker for rhel6 client with ipa-server-4.1.
