The fix is easy:
- sudo aptitude purge maildrop
- download the maildrop tar.bz2 from 
http://www.courier-mta.org/download.php#maildrop
- follow the install instructions 
  - sudo aptitude install libpcre3-dev
  - ./configure
  - ./make
  - ./make install-strip
  - ./make install-doc
- change .fetchmailrc to use /usr/local/bin/maildrop instead of 
/usr/bin/maildrop

There are two packages in the repositories; maildrop and courier-
maildrop. maildrop has been (in my opinion erroneously) compiled with
courier-auth support, and courier-authlib has been made a pre-req. That
may well have needed to be done for courier-maildrop, but I don't think
it should be done for standalone maildrop.
