Ok. What's the consequence of this for the package? I.e., is this just
that there's a dep on libsasl2 instead of on libsasl2-2, or are there
differences in the functionality of libauthen-sasl-cyrus-perl because of
having built for an old version? (If the latter, there may be other
packages in need of a rebuild; if the former, I'm not sure if it's even
worth a rebuild at all just for this?)

Depends on the answers to the above, I imagine.
