Not particularly - it's quite a small patch which goes onto 2.3.14 and
current CVS HEAD cleanly.  If there's any extra work required for it to
be applied upstream, I'm happy to do that.

If your config allows the Mupdate server to advertise a usable SASL mech
without doing a "STARTTLS", then backend_authenticate() won't bother.


We've deployed Murder Classic with TLS everywhere and client cert
authentication between all the systems using this patch plus the client
certs one (bug #3133).  On the Mupdate box we have something like:

  allowplaintext:     no
  sasl_mech_list:     EXTERNAL

  tls_require_cert:   true
  tls_ca_file:        /etc/ssl/certs/client-internal-CA.pem

  mupdate_admins: fe1.client.dom fe2.client.dom fe3.client.dom \
                  fe4.client.dom fe5.client.dom fe6.client.dom \
                  be1.client.dom be2.client.dom be3.client.dom
