I was wrong again. Other clients are sending SOMETHING, I just don't
know what. It's not an md5 hexdigest. I'm unsure if it's
base64-encoded, or just random numbers/letters. I've been scanning the
SASL DIGEST-MD5 RFC and I can't come to a conclusion. I don't think
cnonce is required to be encoded as anything except as part of the
'response'. Perhaps Psi is botching the computation for that.
