The plan definitely includes LDAP and Kerberos bindings.

The problem is that CURL assumes the OpenLDAP and MIT Kerberos 5 API's and 
refuses anything else (modulo some patching which will not be accepted 
upstream).

I know that the Kerberos 5 team is working on the MIT API Compatibility Layer, 
and that it will become available in Nevada. I don't yet know about LDAP.
