compile python-ldap on macosx

[Jens Vagelpohl]

that error message always shows up for me as well (probably a typo 
somewhere in the build code), but it never made the build process fail 
for me.

as far as OpenLDAP goes, i never use pre-packaged stuff. i use the 
source distribution and build it myself. never had a problem building 
python-ldap with that.
