Bug#419376: saslauthd: no output from init script in default etch install

[Fabian Fagerholm]

Package: sasl2-bin
Version: 2.1.22.dfsg1-8
Severity: normal

Installing sasl2-bin on a clean etch system, and setting START=yes in 
/etc/default/saslauthd, results in no output from the saslauthd init 
script.

Removing the checks for the VERBOSE variable results in normal output. 
Is that variable really necessary?
