I won't... This was part of my .egg project - and was merely a
test. ;o)
But it showed clearly that it's problematic to build python-ldap-2.3.1
with OpenLDAP 2.2.x, which I didn't know beforehand.

Anyway, Eric HAS the 2.3.x libs installed and used the 2.2.x headers
for no good reason. That's what I wanted to point out...
