_ldap problem and current resolution. -- found api change

[Joe Little]

please do commit... the effort to get current CS to work with Steffen's 
patches has been problematic on my end. I'd like there to be concensus 
(ie CVS committed) on what is the ideal 2.x version. I also think that 
the version number should be officially increased to 1.11alpha or 
whatever.
