There's some code for supporting Cyrus' SASL library, but it hasn't been
tested for a while and I doubt that it works. I don't really have plans
to make it work either.

Why do you want it anyway? Dovecot supports PLAIN, DIGEST-MD5 and
ANONYMOUS SASL mechanisms internally. Most important missing one is
Kerberos 5 I think.
