I asked the maintainer... and though I don't recall the
exact response (email him, he'll answer you), I know there
are issues with the changes that Cyrus has implemented, and
how they went about it. SASL, PAM, et al, still has a bit
of work to go through. Frankly, I think it was a mistake
to drop the other, simple and reliable, authentication mechanisms.
*shrug*
But that's the gist of it.
