Apparently the problem is that SASL 2.1.25 changed the ABI in an
incompatible way without bumping the DLL version[1].

The easiest fix is to rebuild OpenLDAP against the updated SASL package.
It might also be possible for me to release a patched SASL package with
a bumped DLL version, preserving the previous DLL in the current
libsasl2 package, but I'd really prefer not to do that.
