cc @dhedberg Any luck to have this over the official PHP release?
We ended up not needing this, so I think it's stuck for now unless someone else helps it over the finish line.
There's also no proper upstream for this library as far as I can tell, so I guess the patch would have to be adopted separately by Debian and any other distributions that still carry it, if any.
Which also raises the question whether it's a good idea to add features and keep relying on it in the first place..
The Alpine email client fork of UW IMAP contains this support since 2.22 (initial support checked in on 2019-05-04). See imap/src/c-client/auth_oa2.c and Help for Alpine - XOAUTH2
