well, I'll be ... I thought I'd proactively fixed this !?

i'll share what i've found. BOTTOM LINE:  i think (?) there's a bug that needs to be 
fixed ... or at least behavior that needs to be better clarified.

on my system (OSX 10.3.5), cyrus-sasl-2.1.19 has been built/installed in cd 
/usr/local/cyrus-sasl (the OSX SASL2.framework still gets installed in 
/Library/Frameworks ... i'll worry abt this later) with (among other settings):

        ./configure \
          --prefix=/usr/local/cyrus-sasl \
          --with-plugindir=/usr/local/cyrus-sasl/lib/sasl2 \
          ...
          --with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl \
          ...
          --with-dblib=berkeley \
          --with-bdb-libdir=/usr/lib \
          --with-bdb-incdir=/usr/include \
          ...

of course, per numerous messages on the board, in building cyrus-imap you've got to 
make sure to pick up the right sasl2 libs ... NOT the OSX 'native' installs in /usr.

to that end, i SPECIFICALLY built cyrus-imapd-2.2.8 with:

        setenv LDFLAGS "-L/usr/local/cyrus-sasl/lib -lsasl2"
        setenv CPPFLAGS "-I/usr/local/cyrus-sasl/include/sasl"

and

          --with-sasl=/usr/local/cyrus-sasl \

as:

        ./configure \
          --prefix=/usr/local/cyrus-imap \
          --with-cyrus-prefix=/usr/local/cyrus-imap/bin \
          --with-service-path=/usr/local/cyrus-imap/libexec \
          --with-sasl=/usr/local/cyrus-sasl \
          --with-snmp=/usr/local/net-snmp \
        --with-auth=unix \
        --enable-listext \
        --with-bdb \
        --with-bdb-libdir=/usr/lib \
        --with-bdb-incdir=/usr/include \
        --with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl \
        --with-syslogfacility=LOCAL6 \
        --with-perl=/usr/bin/perl \
        --with-libwrap \
        --enable-sieve \
        --enable-server \
        --disable-gssapi \
        --with-syslogfacility=LOCAL6

then

        make depend
        make all

changing

        # this is another issue for later ...
        --------------------------------------
        (EDITOR) perl/imap/Makefile perl/sieve/managesieve/Makefile
        
        ---     PERLPREFIX = $(PREFIX)
        +++     PERLPREFIX = /
        --------------------------------------

followed by

        make install

all was (so i thought) OK.

per your mail message, tho i checked AGAIN:

        otool -L /usr/local/cyrus-imap/bin/imtest

to find:

                Load command 5
                cmd LC_LOAD_DYLIB
                cmdsize 56
                name /usr/lib/libsasl2.2.0.1.dylib (offset 24)

STILL linked against the wrong library!

some digging finds multiple ocurrences of:

        EXTRALIBS = -L/usr/lib -ldb-4.2 -L/usr/local/cyrus-sasl/lib -lsasl2 
-L/usr/local/ssl/lib -L/usr/local/ssl/lib -lssl -lcrypto

and

        LDLOADLIBS = -L/usr/lib -ldb-4.2 -L/usr/local/cyrus-sasl/lib -lsasl2 
-L/usr/local/ssl/lib -L/usr/local/ssl/lib -lssl -lcrypto


note the "-ldb-4.2" PREPENDED by "-L/usr/lib"!

this seems to be picked up from the specification of:

        --with-bdb \
        --with-bdb-libdir=/usr/lib \
        --with-bdb-incdir=/usr/include \

in configure.

if I remove the libdir/incdir lines from configure, and reconfigure with just

        --with-bdb \

after:

        make depend
        make all

i find:

        EXTRALIBS = -ldb-4.2 -L/usr/local/cyrus-sasl/lib -lsasl2 -L/usr/local/ssl/lib 
-L/usr/local/ssl/lib -lssl -lcrypto

and

        LDLOADLIBS = -ldb-4.2 -L/usr/local/cyrus-sasl/lib -lsasl2 -L/usr/local/ssl/lib 
-L/usr/local/ssl/lib -lssl -lcrypto

NOTE: *NO* prepended "-L/usr/lib"

a subsequent:

        make install

goes smoothly, and a check of the rebuilt bin:

        otool -L /usr/local/cyrus-imap/bin/imtest

shows what I expected the first time around:

               Load command 5
                cmd LC_LOAD_DYLIB
               cmdsize 80
                name /usr/local/cyrus-sasl/lib/libsasl2.2.dylib (offset 24)

now linked against the SASL *I* built ...

I'd suggest that the code should be mod'd to pull SASL2 from where it's told to EVEN 
IN THE EVENT that another lib (e.g., dbd) is being pulled from /usr.

thanks for the 'thump' on the head!
