Yep, quite a bit actually.  I've posted numerous environment things you may
need to the list also.

What compiler?

Is NO a valid option?  I see 'no', --without-XXXX and possibly
--disable-XXXX, as options, but I don't know about NO.

I can't remember where exactly this was, but I'd bet it was in your env

Sunfreeware hosts a 3.0.10 set if you're looking for a non-ldap binary
version.  Yes it's old, but it's an option.
