Bug #145766 describes a problem with cyrus-imap using libnss-ldap. It was closed, because it is a
problem in libsasl2, not cyrus-imap. The README.debian explains this and recommends to compile
libldap2 --without-cyrus-sasl. But this makes a lot of functionality of the package openldap2
unusable.

I cannot find a bug for libsasl2 about this re-entrance bug. Perhaps bug #220837? I assume the
problem is still there. There was a patch for libsasl7 that has been applied shortly
before Woody has been released to fix this problem in libsasl7 1.5.28-1 (see bug #139568).

For Sarge I think this problem has to be solved. Could you apply this patch from libsasl7 to
libsasl2?
