THAT I didn't like at all.  If it is an authz module, it should have been
plugged to the ptloader.  Looks more like a hack to the vir. domain system.

If kolab touched that, the chances of we taking the patches have decreased
to close to zero.  I do NOT want people doing such things that 2.3 will
NEVER support.

We might need a cyrus-kolab package that has the patches applied, and to
keep the rest of cyrus "pure"...
