That would just exacerbate the situation, because the use of authlib
(authdaemon) is not actually mandatory, maildrop has an -a option that
can make it so. In this same bug report we already saw a person say
courier-authlib support should be completely removed, rather.

I'm guessing some more patching of authlib to be silent would make this
middle-ground position more bearable...
