Re: (ITS#3689) 2.2.24 bind as not root user SLES9 fails

[Kurt@OpenLDAP.org]

The assertion below indicates a problem with _nss_ldap_map_get
defined in the file ldap-nss.c.  OpenLDAP Software neither
contains such a file or any symbol named _nss_ldap_map_get.
I assume that you using NSS/LDAP and that this assertion
is indicative of some problem with NSS/LDAP or your configuration
of NSS/LDAP.  In either case, this is not in itself indicative
of a bug in OpenLDAP Software.
