The workaround is:
1. compile and install GNU Rx.

2. edit openldap-1.2.11/include/ac/regex.h
replace <regex.h> with <rxposix.h>

3. LIBS=-lrx ./configure
(if librx is not installed in a path known to compiler,
set env variables as in http://www.openldap.org/faq/data/cache/152.html
when running ./configure)
