Bug#462958: Size read failed

I just upgraded everything on my Testing system. I have now lost access to my email system, and investigation gives me the same result as you have, 
but there were no updates for SASL, the only thing relevant was pam_ldap, as I use PAM for saslauthd.

Suffice to say, it is quite broken, and testsaslauthd returns:
mrlinux2:/# testsaslauthd -u xxx -p yyy
size read failed
0: mrlinux2:/#

...which is probably why my cyrus-imapd is giving me ambiguous checkpass failures and so on.

I got everything working for me again temporarily by telling saslauthd to use ldap directly instead of via pam.
