Note most of this discussion has been happening in the wrong thread,
2009/123 is the case which switches APR to OpenLDAP. This case,
2009/124 is merely a consequence (what Apache does, PHP must do).

I'm derailing 2009/123 myself. If nothing else, the case was filed

in that status means management has some figuring out to do.
