Bug#830764: Missing caret (^) in logcheck rule

Package: libsasl2-modules
Version: 2.1.26.dfsg1-15
Severity: minor

Almost all logcheck rules start like this:

    ^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11}
    ^\w{3} [ :[:digit:]]{11}

But this one is missing the leading caret:

    \w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ [._[:alnum:]-]+: DIGEST-MD5 common mech free

Please add the caret.

This makes my life slightly easier when I do horrible things to trick logcheck into supporting RFC 3339 timestamps
(RSYSLOG_FileFormat in http://www.rsyslog.com/doc/v8-stable/configuration/templates.html#reserved-template-names).
