If I understand the overlay concept of OpenLDAP correctly, it is some
sort of backend data processing filters. So, I also think it makes sense
to support them in the OpenPKG "openldap" package. But the question for
me is whether we really need an %option for each one of them or whether
we instead couldn't just _build_ all of them and rely perhaps on some
sort of configuration to really _enable_ them? One possibility would be
the --enable-xxx=mod" feature which builds each overlay as a DSO. But is
it also possible to build _all_ into slapds statically without harm and
still let the user _enable_ them via configuration?
