	It is in there (although an nm on the library doesn't find it), I 
expect the problem is library path. Ports puts sasl in /usr/local/lib and I 
expect that isn't in the library path when it tries to compile the program 
that tests for prop_get. For FreeBSD it would be good to include the 
/usr/local/ path in the default search path because ports tends to put 
everything in /usr/local/* (include, lib etc.)
