The concise-software blog author chose not to have his discussion on a
MacPorts list where it might be useful so we didn't benefit. He chose to
document a supposed bug rather than contribute to fixing it. But there
isn't much we can do about lone rangers.
But otherwise, I suspect that openldap should use db44 (a newer version)
rather than db4. So please try this:
uninstall db4
install db44
Change the openldap Portfile like this:
--- Portfile.org 2007-07-30 09:30:48.000000000 -0700
+++ Portfile 2007-07-30 09:36:58.000000000 -0700

The db44 port still has the arguments "--enable-compat185
--enable-dump185", but I see the FreeBSD port uses those too and I wonder
if mr blogger is correct about removing those. I just installed openldap
using db44; please report if you have success with this method so we can
tell the openldap port maintainer so he can fix it.
