Installation of OpenLDAP on RH 9.0 causes some type of conflict between SASL
installed with RH and the version in which OpenLDAP requires.  This conflict
cause "make test" to fail.  The message that appears in the master log is:
daemon_init: ldap://localhost:9009/
daemon_init: listen on ldap://localhost:9009/
daemon_init: 1 listeners to open...
ldap_url_parse_ext(ldap://localhost:9009/)
daemon: initialized ldap://localhost:9009/
daemon_init: 1 listeners opened
slapd init: initiated server.
slap_sasl_init: SASL version mismatch, got 201000a, wanted 201000d.
slapd shutdown: freeing system resources.
slapd stopped.
connections_destroy: nothing to destroy.

I have searched the Net and the mailing list.  There are references to this
problem, but no solutions on how to fix it.  So far, I've tried "gutting" RH
linux with some success, but there are so many dependencies, on packages that
are common to both OpenLDAP and RH Linux that I've broken much of the
functionality of the distribution.

To reproduce this problem just build on RH9.  Also, if this is really a problem,
that is common to all, maybe it should be a warning in the install notes and
instructions on how to fix it.
