If the goal is to minimize the deviation from the "factory standard" 
set of distribution RPMs (this minimizing the admin work) then changing 
all dependent RPMs to follow the new naming conventions for this single 
set of libraries is, IMHO, unfeasible. It would mean that instead of 
worrying about a small set of RPMs I am trading that for having to 
rebuild a much larger set every single time.

I'm looking for a (hopefully) clean way to "bend" the OpenLDAP build to 
my needs as far as library naming goes, that's all.
