However, imapd/auth_gsasl.c could use some cleaning up to use the latest
GNU SASL interface (right now there are warnings about using deprecated
interfaces).  Before sending a patch, are you OK with abandoning support
for old GNU SASL?  GNU SASL 0.2.x with the new interface was released in
2004 and not even my Ubuntu 8.04 LTS system has it anymore.

If you agree with this, I can prepare a patch to cleanup the code a bit.
