If you manage to get https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51004 sorted out then I think we could stuff in openldap as a replacement for the (obscure?) ldap backend and then remove the entire mozilla module without losing any existing functionality.
That would be amazing, yes.
Though, maybe we should try and go ahead and see if we can build openldap under windows and drop the mozab stuff (which all Linux distros do for yonks) and reenable it if the alternative implementation appears.
Actually, Windows has a native ldap api for Windows 2000 onwards. It consists from the winldap.h header and wldap32.dll. The apis are slightly different in some functions, so sometimes a compatibility macros are needed, but it should be conceptually possible to use this instead of trying to suck openldap in.
