We're vaguely aware of it.

It doesn't implement the same API.  There's actually currently an effort
to standardize the API for sasl libraries to something similar to Cyrus
SASL.  The API is discussed in draft-newman-sasl-c-api-00.txt.

Note that the above draft is a *very* rough cut, and is still being
brought in line with the current SASLv2 header files.
