      When a GSSAPI module is not available to cyrus-sasl when authenticating with kerberos we currently fail very generically:
      SASL Failure: failure to negotiate mechanism: generic server error

      We should be able to

      • Improve that error message, saying the underlaying library didn't support GSSAPI after all
      • or, detect the missing sasl mechanism during ./configure
