Bug Description

Cyrus SASL's sasl_set_mutex() API will allows multiple callers to reset its state, so mutexes created earlier may not be usable after a subsequent call. This problem is discussed here

http://asg.andrew.cmu.edu/archive/message.php?mailbox=archive.cyrus-sasl&msg=8954

and a fix is available in the current Cyrus CVS.
