According to documentation it should.
But I didn't manage to compile it on snv_54.
I installed openldap from Blastwave and compiled against it - worked
perfectly.

A word of caution though if you ever use openldap you need to go to great lengths to ensure that you never end up with the openldap and mozilla ldap (default on Solaris) libraries end up in the same process it will cause problems - hangs, core dumps and strange behaviour have all been observed.

One thing that can cause this is an application using openldap and the system using ldap as a nameservice - there are other cases as well.
