DESCRIPTION
     The sasl_errstring() interface is called to convert  a  SASL
     return code from an integer into a human readable string.


     You  should  not  used  the  sasl_errstring()  interface  to
     extract  error  code  information  from  SASL.  Applications
     should use  sasl_errdetail(3SASL)  instead,  which  contains
     this error information and more.


     The sasl_errstring() interface supports only  i-default  and
     i-local at this time.

PARAMETERS
     saslerr     The error number to be translated.


     langlist    A comma-separated list  of  languages.  See  RFC
                 1766.  If thelanglist parameter has aNULL value,
                 the default language,i-default, is used.


     outlang     The language actually used. The outlang  parame-
                 ter can be NULL. The returned error string is in
                 UTF-8.
