Dear All,

One of our customer got a signal 6 during the execution of the ldap_abandon.
This signal occurred whereas some maintenance was doing on a firewall which is
not located on the same network. It seems that the ldap_abandon thrown this
assert because it was a situation like a can't happen. I don't have much
information on the action performed on the firewall which led to this sigabort.


Please find the logs I have :

I am in the process of a reproduction of this signal 6 but I would like to share
the following idea.

Do you think there is a possibility to enhance the openldap library to avoid
this assert? Is it possible that instead of having an assert, we have a
exception or a status code which tell us something went wrong of obviously that
we can handle in our source code. 

My best regards
