There is no cyrus-sasl 2.1.24 release.  There is a release candidate, which 
when I tested it, had a series of serious flaws.  Why anyone would add that 
to a distribution is beyond me.  The latest release of cyrus-sasl is 
2.1.23.  I find it significant that after 2 years there still remains no 
official 2.1.24 release after the numerous issue reports that were filtered 
back to the project.
