Yes, it's definitely a good idea. I think we can repo-copy cyrus-sasl2
to cyrus-sasl as Grog mentioned, and handle the knobs after maintainers
removed the references to the old cyrus-sasl for their ports. I'm not
sure, if the new version is completely compatible with the old one, and
there are ports that support both ones, so we should make sure first if
all ports work with cyrus-sasl2, that's why I sent this headsup.
