Sorry, no offense was intended.  I am just suprised that, after 
searching the mailing list for openldap and finding that, after a small 
patch was applied, "the entire OpenLDAP distribution builds cleanly 
under Cygwin now." [email from * Jason Tishler <jason at tishler dot 
net> to * Carlos de Sousa <Carlos dot de_Sousa at ebc dot ericsson dot 
se> and cc'd to cygwin at cygwin dot com on Mon, 22 Oct 2001 12:46:59 
-0400] that it would be necessary to add LIBS="$LIBS -lregex 
/usr/lib/textmode.o" to the beginning of the configure command.  I am 
supprised that openLDAP does not have a configure.ac to provide any 
platform specific configuration information to configure. Perhaps  my 
questions/offensive comments should be directed the openLDAP developers.

Anyway, if this question comes up again, the answer will be in the 
archive for people to find by searching it.
