Hrm.  Well, right now sudo only depends on libc6 and the PAM libraries,
so it would add another library dependency.  It's probably not a big
deal, but folks who aren't using ldap will end up being burdened with
another library dependency.

My own use of sudo is fairly simplistic, and I don't have an easy way to
comprehensively test the consequences of the change.  I agree that
upstream's docs suggest this should be a no-brainer.  

I'll turn it on for the next upload and we'll see if anyone screams.
