OK, in HEAD I dropped 'ldap server' and 'ldap port' as parmaters, moving
to the 'passdb backend' scheme.  However, this would mean that a valid
2.2 configuration would not function in 3.0.

This change (and the bit I forgot - making ldapsam the default passdb
backend...) should make 'direct' upgrades possible.  Now if you were
thinking of doing somthing different, that's fine - we may well have
misunderstood each other.
