I am self-sponsoring this fast-track, which expires on 2007-Sep-28.
It seeks to clarify that a function previously ARC'd as Evolving never
existed but that a related function which was introduced should be
Consolidation Private.

   PSARC 1998/361 - Native LDAP

1. Problem

   The above case introduced getldapaliasbyname(3n) as an Evolving function
   with a man page.  No function by that (exact) name was ever putback,
   though.  What was putback was __getldapaliasbyname() with no man page.
   Furthermore, the binding for the latter function in the library's map
   file is Private, and there is and only ever has been one consumer
   (sendmail).  Therefore I assert that the Native LDAP case was incorrectly
   specified.

2. Solution

   This case seeks to clarify that __getldapaliasbyname() is a Consolidation
   Private interface and that getldapaliasbyname() is not and has never been
   an Evolving interface.
