[Bug 228712] [NEW] Feature request: add patch to enable crypted passwords

[kbe]

Public bug reported:

Hi,

sorry if this is not the right place to post this. It's my first time
;-)

I was wondering if the "frost patch" could be incorporated into the
libsasl2-2 package:

http://frost.ath.cx/software/cyrus-sasl-patches/

It enables the authentication of hashed passwords stored in a database.
It has been around for some time and is included as an option on Gentoo.

I played around with pbuilder and the source package and managed to
build a .deb that includes the patch and is working on my Hardy AMD64
machine. I attached the main patch to this bug. I addition, small
changes have to be made to lib/Makefile.in and lib/Makefile.am

Looking forward to an answer,
Karsten
