I see.

I mean, will
-lldap_r -llber -lresolv
work, or do you need something else (liblber_r.so or whatever).

I don't know anything about Unixware.
I don't suggest that anybody should use --enable_thread_safety
on Unixware, but I think it should at least compile cleanly if
possible.

I guess that adding $EXTRA_LDAP_LIBS to -lldap_r will be enough,
judging from the evidence on Linux.
