It shouldn't cause any problems for anybody that has OpenLDAP installed as a client only, but it's a bit bumpy for those that are running OpenLDAP servers.
Before this package goes stable, I'd like to suggest that backwardly compatible libraries be provided so that applications aren't horribly broken by this upgrade (similar to how we've done for openssl in the past).
On two different test systems, this upgrade caused broken dynamic library dependencies in over 35 packages on each system. I'm going to hazard a guess that a majority of systems that have openldap installed have more than one or two packages depending on openldap (and probably aren't dedicated LDAP servers). For those folks who use LDAP for various thing, I could see this as being a very big gotcha.
