On a follow-up to this, we have been having trouble with the install
phase of the LDAP component. It segfaults early on and installs nothing.

This is on RH 8, patched to date. The main part installs clean.

We think that part of the trouble may be due to the various files not
having their ownership specifically set to root. The issue could have
been complicated by use of the whoson patches (suitable brought up to
date, but it is difficult to see how unless it's a problem in
autoconf/rpm.


Most of the problem seems to be a due to a problem in rpm itself
triggered by our doing centralised login auth from LDAP and hence having
no local entry in /etc/passwd for the user doing most of the package
build. 

The single rpm built from the 1.7.0 snapshot did not suffer from this
problem.
