I've not understood it yet, I have a strong suspicion it's due to the
crypto library in openssl.

It seems to be showing up in libsasl only because it is being passed in
a name that comes from uninitialised data somehow.

My guess is that the user name is partially uninitialised, as this
comes from the client certificate I bet that is caused by the openssl
library somehow.

The errors beneath sasl_server_new make no sense as we only pass in
a constant string and NULL so there isn't anything that could be
uninitialised as far as I can see.

Having said that the version of cyrus sasl being used seems very old -
2.0.25 as opposed to 2.1.26. So I'm not sure we should care all that
much.

I say we add suppressions for these issues as tightly as we can and
just wash our hands!

The travis failures are becoming a drag.

Any different opinions
