This comment may apply also to the earlier OAuth related two stub
functions, but this is the "#else" side of "#ifndef NO_OPENSSL";
double negation always makes all our spin, but in short, this is
"You are not building with OpenSSL".  We cannot quite look at the
post context of this hunk for sanity check, but inside the cram()
stub function ...

	die("If you want to use CRAM-MD5 authenticate method, "
	    "you have to build git-imap-send with OpenSSL library.");

... is the message it dies with.  So, shouldn't the error from the
new stub function also say "If you want to use PLAIN, you have to
build with OpenSSL"?

And the same comment about not gracefully failing when our side lack
support, even though we gracefully fail when the other side lacks
support, given to an earlier step also applies here.
