Thank you Bruno for testing!

Any ideas what this is?  I can't find anything in gsasl invoking 'file'.
I suspect it comes from some auto-generated file.  Maybe it is a bug in
any of those tools.

It was a bug that libgcrypt was required.  Please try 1.9.1 on those
platforms and let me know if it works!

It would be nice if you could report those build problems to the
libgcrypt people, since they probably don't read this mailing list.
