The shared libs still install with the 0755 perms for me.  Most likely 
because they are installed via the ${INSTALL_STRIP_PROGRAM} macro so that 
they get stripped.

Once again, very cool. :)

The authldap.schema file *is* needed to configure the openldap-server. 
slapd.conf(5) needs to:

include         /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/authldap.schema

to be able to use the fields required by courier-authlib-ldap.  The catch 
is that courier-authlib-ldap does not require openldap-server to be 
installed, only the openldap-client libraries.  And openldap-server can be 
running on a different machine and does not need courier-authlib installed 
to support it, just the authldap.schema file is needed.
That's why I suggested installing authldap.schema in ${EXAMPLESDIR} so that 
it's readily available to an admin configuring courier-authlib-ldap. 
Otherwise one would need to dig for the file in the disto tarball.  Another 
option is to make a separate port which RUN_DEPENDS only on openldap-server 
just to install authldap.schema in etc/openldap/schema/ but that seems like 
overkill to me.  Samba is another port which has openldap schema files, 
don't remember how they handle it or if they do.
