My guess this is a bug on Google's end. I wonder if any of the

woops, my bad. I thought Google's servers were totally wrong, turns
out they just _require_ the SASL auth data when the auth mech is
picked.
That's still a bug in Google's implementation, though. RFC4422 says
that's optional, for both protocol profiles and mechanisms. (Section
4, point 3a, and Section 5, point 2a).
RFC3920 doesn't mandate usage of an initial response either.
Of course, using the initial response facility makes sense if you
can, since it always saves at least one round-trip.
