This patch seems to fail now (see below). I'm inclined to remove it but I
wonder whether it might be still needed/useful today.
This probably goes back to lines of thought (from Ralf, even) i.e.:
http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-devel/200505/msg00065.html
In an age of nssov, nslcd, etc etc. the entire question is redefined. A
patch like that probably causes more pain (either directly or by hiding
issues) than it helps. I'd drop it.
