Ok, I understand the reason to keep it on as default, which is also
useful on our case, where we actually have a kerberized environment, but
there must be some way to reduce this huge login delay, or at least make
it easier to it turn on/off than "ssh -o GSSAPIAuthentication=...
user at hostname"

Title:
  SSH with GSSAPIAuthentication option on SSH servers are very slow

Status in Portable OpenSSH:
  New
Status in “openssh” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “openssh” package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: openssh-client

  In Feisty Fawn I noticed a very slow ssh connection to some local servers, the prompt login takes 5/6 seconds to appear.
  I solved this problem putting the option "GSSAPIAuthentication no" instead "yes" in the /etc/ssh/ssh_config file.

  SSH Version is 4.3p2-7ubuntu1
