Klaus, I have to admit that made quite a mistake here. I did not thoroughly investigate this problem when you first reported it. A grep throug the cyrus-sasl2 source code for the string "looking for plugins in" would have led me to find that the problem is actually within cyrus-sasl2 itself (line 535 of lib/dlopen.c).
I apologize for incorrectly pushing the problem off to mutt. I will restore the missing directory and upload an updated package as soon as I possibly can.
