 Always possible, I didn't really notice one. ;) And my ACL file is several 
 hundred lines.  On the other hand, I use SASL/GSSAPI binds, which slows 
 down things enough that the missing caching may have no effect.
 
 So I think we should enable SLAPI. Matthias, any objections?

No objections. Go ahead.

That's for sure :) Do you know if it could impact stability of the
packages? I do not really want to risk anything as the packages 
should get ready for the release soon...

I haven't done a thorough review of the code, but from what I have
seen and what I understand of how it works there should be zero impact
on stability.
It just makes some extra functionality available via the keywords
plugin and pluginlog in slapd.conf.
If you don't compile in SLAPI support, those keywords are quietly
ignored.  If you do, then those keywords give access to the extra
functionality. 
Certainly *using* this functionality _could_ upset stability.  But
just having it compiled in shouldn't.

Thanks,
NeilBrown

Compiling OpenLDAP with SLAPI support means that ACL caching is disabled. 
However, I'll note that ACL caching is broken in 2.3 for some types of 
ACLs, and compiling with SLAPI support is the only way to make those ACL's 
work correctly.  So even though I do not use SLAPI plugins, I compile with 
SLAPI enabled so that my ACL's work right.


Other than that, compiling with SLAPI support doesn't have an effect either 
way how OpenLDAP behaves.
