Here is the patch including patch from #61853 and #61921 with some helper
functions in file ldap_dev_utils.c. This goes against current php-src head.

Yes you are right, ldap_control_create is not available everywhere (not in
older libldap and not in winldap). I used it naturally and forget to check for
this one.
It has to be re-implemented into php-ldap, I'll do as soon as possible.

Yes, the code from both patches (#61921 and this one) compiles fine, but there
is a link error with 2.3.42 (not 2.3.48, my bad), it can't find
ldap_control_create. The latest, 2.4.33, compiles good and tests pass. Only one
test fails for me ext\ldap\tests\ldap_sasl_bind_basic.phpt , but that's
disregarding of with or without patch. That's may be because of the server
configuration. If you mean no new test need to be added, so be.
About that #ifdef - it's not about server but client libs. IMHO, there are
still enough "stable" distro versions in use, like centos5 and so on, which
have older openldap by default. At the end of the day, it's not a big deal to
put just a bit more appropriate checks and be compatible with older client
libs. As it's almost done now anyway :) It's just a bit confusing both 2.3 and
2.4 series having the api version of 3001, but from the other side - this way
the devs mean it stands not very far from each other.

And anyway, *_ext family was designed in 1998 and first implemented in libldap
in 1999. ldap_search was tagged as deprecated in 2006. There is no reason to
put those ifdef in the first place, I don't think people like to have 6 years
old unmaintained code running on their webserver. On windows those functions
are supported since Windows 2k ...

Does php-ldap compile under 2.3.48 without my patch ? (tests are already
available in tests directory).

I'm still testing the functionality in whole. Please add also some tests for
what you did so far.
