 If you look at my patch you'll see that I not only made an ldap option,
 but included the corresponding buildlink3.mk from
 databases/openldap-client which performs the corresponding magic in
 interpreting PREFER.openldap-client and using builtin's or pkgsrc's
 openldap, such that I have the option to get rid of the double linkage
 of libcrypto by either not using openssl from pkgsrc, using openssl &
 openldap from pkgsrc, or I use pkgsrc's openssl and do not link against
 ldap...
 
 The option does more than just allowing to disable it.  If enabled it
 pulls in the right magic macros for openldap-client/ldap selection.
