+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+
+These functions create a Kerberos 5 principal from a realm and a list
+of components.
+All of these functions return an allocated principal in the
+.Fa principal
+parameter, this should be freed with
+.Fn krb5_free_principal
+after use.
+.Pp
+The
+.Dq build
+functions take a
+.Fa realm
+and the length of the realm. The
+.Fn krb5_build_principal
+and
+.Fn krb5_build_principal_va
+also takes a list of components (zero-terminated strings), terminated
+with
+.Dv NULL .
+The
+.Fn krb5_build_principal_ext
+and
+.Fn krb5_build_principal_va_ext
+takes a list of length-value pairs, the list is terminated with a zero
+length.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn krb5_make_principal
+is a wrapper around
+.Fn krb5_build_principal .
+If the realm is
+.Dv NULL ,
+the default realm will be used.
+
+.Sh BUGS
+You can not have a NUL in a component. Until someone can give a good
+example of where it would be a good idea to have NUL's in a component,
+this will not be fixed.
