Yes. See:

I believe this problem went away when I changed or upgraded my Heimdal
libraries (and recompiled sasl). I'm currently using Heimdal 1.1 libraries.
I believe I had this problem on the older 0.7.x libraries.

The problem appears to be that the client is advertising a max out buffer
of 4096, but is sending a packet of data larger than that (incorrectly).
It's probably due to a problem between cyrus sasl and which ever kerberos
library you're using.

OpenLDAP client utilities provide a -O to specify security-options (e.g. -O
maxbufsize=4096), but I don't know of a way to do that with cyrus clients
without recompiling the defaults in sasl.
