I'm not sure what the utility is to having a hard-coded default install location that doesn't respect the setting from --with-plugindir; it would seem better to me to change https://github.com/cyrusimap/cyrus-sasl/blob/2ea0649f5cafce4f0b597d82f7acca7721e96cc8/plugins/Makefile.am#L66 to set sasldir to the same value as plugindir. People who need the current behaviour would be able to override sasldir with e.g. |make sasldir=/usr/lib/sasl2| (an approach we currently use to make sure they're installed to plugindir) but it would be more difficult for people to end up with a broken install.

For me, that is the issue....I need sasldir and plugindir to match, but there is no way to set sasldir, so I had to patch it to be settable.

My patch also checks that the 2 match, INSTEAD of comparing to something hard-coded.  Having them match anyway would fix that.

-       @if test "$(plugindir)" != "$(prefix)/lib/sasl2"; then \
+       @if [ "X$(sasldir)" != "X$(plugindir)" ] ; then \

Here's what I do in Makefile after patching:

SASL2.32 = $(USRLIBDIR)/sasl2
SASL2.64 = $(USRLIBDIR)/sasl2/$(MACH64)

CONFIGURE_OPTIONS.32 += --with-plugindir=$(SASL2.32)
CONFIGURE_OPTIONS.64 += --with-plugindir=$(SASL2.64)
CONFIGURE_OPTIONS.32 += --with-sasldir=$(SASL2.32)
CONFIGURE_OPTIONS.64 += --with-sasldir=$(SASL2.64)

That's a lot of trouble to go to just to get them to install and be looked for in the same place.
