Comment:

 (In [f6430c7013d08f95c60248eeb22c752a0107499b]) The DIGEST-MD5
 implementation of CYRUS-SASL is incompatible with the implementation in
 Java.  The result is that we failed to authenticate to Java-based servers
 such as OpenFire when DIGEST-MD5 was enabled. This appears to be the
 result of a bug in the Java SASL library.  While we -could- wait for a fix
 within that library and tell our users that server admins need to upgrade
 to get the fix, a client-side workaround is very easily accessible to us.

 Our own implementation (used when compiled with SASL support) works fine.
 We therefore will make use of it when SASL chooses DIGEST-MD5 as the best
 auth mechanism.

 Fixes #2095. Fixes #2186.
 Also fixes http://trac.adiumx.com/ticket/8135.
