Bug#528040: sasl2-bin: segfault on upgrade - fails to configure.

Manually running the scripts somehow magically fixed the problem: I think debconf or the postinst script's state might have become messed up due to the earlier segfault. This wouldn't happen if skipping version -24 (which is now not part of any Debian suite), so keeping the bug closed.
