    Anyone get OpenLDAP to work?

    Has anyone gotten OpenLDAP (www.openldap.org) to configure and compile? I can't get past the ./configure script that generates a <b>configure: error: could not link with POSIX Threads</b> error.

    Okay, so you can get past the error above by disabling threads with the --without-threads option, but hey, <em>no threads</em>!

    Under the friend-of-a-friend category, my research yielded some insight from a seemingly knowledgeable chap (chap?) Kyle Johnson:
    With OSX, thread support is built into the OS, but most UNIX config scripts don't recognize it, so you need to disable thread support (I think using --without-threads in config). There is information on the Darwin site about updating config files to recognize the thread support in OSX, but I haven't had the time to look at it...
    Does this ring a bell with anyone? I've not been able to find the pages he refers to.

    I lied. I get past the ./configure error by turning threads off, but I still can't compile.

    Argh!
