>Description:
     Openldap uses the first available crypt() function when comparing passwords stored as {crypt}<foo>.  As currently compiled (-lssl -lcrypto), the first available crypt() function is selected from openssl, which doesn't support md5 - and thus passwords will never match.  Changing the compile order to (-lcrypto -lssl) resolves this isssue, and doesn't have any other affect.
>How-To-Repeat:
      Compile openldap22-server 'out of the box' and import user passwords from FreeBSD's password file (the PADL scripts work), using "userPassword={CRYPT}[md5 hash]", which is the  default setting.  Anonymous bind and root bind searches will work - user-bound searches will fail with a "ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49)" error.
>Fix:
      Reverse the order of "-lssl -lcrypto" in the main Makefile.
