I was able to get the package to build by adding a 
"--with-cyrus-sasl" configure-flag.

I am not sure if I used the correct value for this flag, however.

The package's configure file says:

 --with-cyrus-sasl=PREFIX
                         Installation prefix of Cyrus-SASL 
                         (defaults to /usr)

That seems to imply that should be the install location of the 
cyrus-sasl package and that the cyrus-sasl-xoauth2 package will 
get installed into the location specified by the "--prefix" 
configure-flag.

The build failed, though, since it was trying to install into the 
/usr directory, even though "--prefix" was set to something else. 
So I set "--with-cyrus-sasl" to be the path of the 
cyrus-sasl-xoauth2 package out and that seems to work now. I 
assume the compilation would have failed if "--with-cyrus-sasl" 
needed to point to the cyrus-sasl location for dependency reasons.

Now hopefully adding the correct search path to the cyrus-sasl 
package will get the cyrus-sasl-xoauth2 properly recognized as a 
plugin. I can work on that patch when I have some time.

Thank you for your all of your help and patience as I am still 
learning how to create guix packages.
