And 2.1.19 is actually one of those things we that use cyrus-sasl2 REALLY
would like to have.  Preferably with the fixes already in CVS.  I contacted
Dima about this yesterday.

Users will go berserk (they already did, actually) if we don't get either
2.1.19 in sarge, or a backport of the "saslauthd -r" patch into 2.1.18 and
of the fixes to the worst bugs.

IMHO sasl 2.1.19 is a fitting t-p-u candidate.

The last package was uploaded to unstable one day before the (extended)
freeze started.

Yes, it is.  As far as the testing scripts are concerned, at least (which is
all that counts IMHO).
