If you look closely at the Makefile (don't just grep it), you'll see
that the LDAP dependency check is in the WITH_MILTER if-statement.
Which means it only checks for LDAP dependencies if you are using a
sendmail built with LDAP. It's trying to keep the milter, sendmail,
and clamav-milter support all sync'd together with any LDAP options.
IOW, unless you already have LDAP installed, it won't add anything to
your system. If you already have LDAP installed, but don't want LDAP
support in your sendmail/milter setup, then you may run into problems.
