There is a pretty elaborate back-perl-based backend available on:
https://github.com/docelic/Viper/blob/master/Viper.pm

With the documentation on what it's been used for available here:
http://spinlocksolutions.com/viper/doc/index.html
http://spinlocksolutions.com/viper/doc/ldap.html

Could be someone finds it useful.
