Is this the only problem? Or do you expect patching reverse dependencies
is needed?

If the only problem is SONAME bump in minimal buildroot, just copy the old
library from system into 2.1.26 at build time. This way you get both
versions available at the same time. Then rebuild reverse dependencies
(in miminimal build root only), and finally rebuild cyrus-sasl to spit
the old library out.

If you are not proven packager I can help you with rebuild.
