Bug#556887: libsasl2-modules-gssapi-heimdal: Heimdal GSSAPI module incorrectly built with mutexes

Package: libsasl2-modules-gssapi-heimdal
Version: 2.1.23.dfsg1
Severity: normal

Both the regular Cyrus SASL build and the Heimdal build pass
--enable-gss_mutexes to configure, but the mutexes are only for the
MIT Kerberos libraries.  I'm not sure even those still require them
these days, but Heimdal doesn't, and those mutexes can cause OpenLDAP's
slapd to deadlock.

Could you please change this to --disable-gss_mutexes for the Heimdal
build?
