Oh yes I can confirm that they're there, openldap2.3 seems to come along 
as a default option with something that came in in the gnome metaport. I 
figured that's why you were posting to -gnome list instead of -mozilla?

This was driving me absolutely bonkers as this is a production machine 
(I know...) until I pulled the symlink.  If there's any good news it's 
that everything seems to run fine at this site but only without the 
symlink.  The hanging led without fail to a coredump emitting somewhere 
out of the pthreading package.  Are you on 6.2-STABLE on an i386?  At 
least one -CURRENT user running x.org 7.2 reported no problems with this.
