Yes, ./configure --without-cyrus-sasl is the solution if one does 
not need SASL support.

Only if line "libs" in setup.cfg contains "sasl" which is not the 
way it is shipped in the download distribution.

There are other dependencies like StartTLS support which needs 
OpenLDAP libs built with OpenSSL (--with-tls). One can switch that 
off by editing the DEFINEs in setup.py.
