11_remove_rpath.diff
I couldn't verify that this actually does what it's supposed to
(ensuring that rpath isn't used with libtool). Whatever I tried, rpath
was used anyway. Could someone try applying the patch and see if you can
get it to work?

12_pr245818.diff
Not applied. A little unsure what the point of this has been.
libsasldb.a seems to build and get installed into the package just fine
without it.

13_libdb42_autotools.diff
Not applied. The purpose seems to be to hardcode the chosen libdb
version. I would say nowadays it's customary to assume that the build
environment is working at least to some extent, and we can probably use
a configure option to choose the libdb version without this patch.

14_manpages_section.diff
Applied.

15_lock_sasl_set_alloc.diff
Applied. The fun begins. This is one of those reentrancy/global state
issues that hmh has mentioned before. We have to apply this or we change
several years of expected behaviour. Later, the real fix is to store
per-context global state.

That's it for today.
