That's the patch that's already in the old Debian package since 2.1.x of
OpenLDAP and causes more problems than it solves. I am working to
replace that patch which is trying to implement an OpenSSL like wrapper
around GnuTLS which I am trying to avoid since it seems to me like the
GnuTLS API is more slim than OpenSSL.
