I am not sure, but....
During the build, SASL references several libraries and headers.
If you don't use Kerberos, you may have old headers in /usr/include.
I had once and could not build SASL. What I did was cvsup of fresh
sources and make/buildworld with 
MAKE_KERBEROS4=        yes
set in /etc/make.conf.
Then you may reinstall SASL.

As I said, I am not sure, but that may give you a little hint.

Cheers,
