That's because you don't have digest-md5 setup properly. The segfault happens
whenever gssapi comes into play here and is not configured, that is, it fails.

If no mechanisms are specified, cyradm will try several, in order, including
gssapi, where the segfault occurs if gssapi is not configured.

So, to sum things up, you may want to remove the gssapi sasl plugin from your
sistem for now and configure digest-md5 or some other mechanism. To use
digest-md5 is not that hard, basically:
- saslpasswd2 -c <yourname>
- check that /etc/sasldb2 is created
- check permissions on that file: the cyrus-master daemon has to be able to read
it
