I handle OpenLDAP the same way as all other software. This is basically
what I do:

cd OpenLDAPsources
mkdir builddir
cd builddir
env CFLAGS="-O2" \
../configure \
--prefix=/opt/OpenLDAP \
--enable-shared \
--disable-static \
--sysconfdir=/var/conf \
--localstatedir=/var/conf/openldap/var \
--disable-hdb \
--disable-monitor \
--enable-rlookups \
--enable-accesslog \
--enable-modules
make
make install

Everything is installed in the right place but the rpath is wrong.
One interesting thing. The executables are not created in the .libs
direcotrys and they are not relinked at install. The .libs directorys
are created but not used. The libraries, on the other hand, ARE
created in the .libs directorys and relinked at install time.
