> The RPC protocol used for SASL negotiation is flawed. The server's RPC
> response contains the next SASL challenge token, but a SASL server can return
> null (I'm done) or a N-many byte challenge. The server currently will not
> send a RPC success response to the client if the SASL server returns null,
> which causes the client to hang until it times out.
