This particular mutex seems kind of bogus to me; the code is from rev 1.31 in
June 2001. Perhaps back then it was unsafe to have multiple SASL operations
outstanding at once; I would expect that was only an issue in the Cyrus 1.5
days and it should be safe now with Cyrus 2.x. We should probably just delete
this mutex.
