* Added support for spliting big data blocks (bigger than maxbuf)
into multiple SASL packets in sasl_encodev
* Various sasl_decode64() fixes
* Increase canonicalization buffer size to 1024 bytes
* Call do_authorization() after successful APOP authentication
* Allow for configuration file location to be configurable independently
of plugin location (bug # 2795)
* Added sasl_set_path function, which provides a more convenient way
of setting plugin and config paths. Changed the default

/usr/lib/sasl2:/etc/sasl2

- Check that DIGEST-MD5 SASL packet are no shorter than 16 bytes
* Several changes/fixed to SASLDB plugin:
- Prevent spurious SASL_NOUSER errors
- Added ability to keep BerkleyDB handle open between operations
