One thing I'd like to ask is: you introduce a few additional mutexes:

ldapoptions ->  ldo_mutex

ldapcommon ->  ldc_msgid_mutex, ldc_abandon_mutex

in addition of the already existing

ldap ->  ld_conn_mutex, ld_req_mutex, ld_res_mutex

that move to ldap_common.

My concern is: can you guarantee that the occurrences of locking/unlocking
those additional mutexes, combined to the existing ones, do not result in
deadlocks?  I mean: did you explicitly check all possible logical paths or
so, or take measures to avoid this possibility?

Yes, I believe that I have, but I agree that the new test060-mt-hot test
case does not sufficiently test these mutexes.  I will make some additional
enhancements to the new test case to provide better code coverage
results, and submit them as part of the next round of code review.
