I've also tried to compile openldap 2.0.18 on cygwin.  I resolved the
configure issue by just commenting out the respective section ;-B;
finally I know that regexp is there and I don't need configure to
guess around.  I've included the 'patched' configure-script.  In this
forma it runs successfully on my system.

But even then openldap refuses to compile completely.  Compilation
breaks in the server part.

When linking slapd I get the following error message:

"Warning: resolving _gdbm_errno by linking to __imp__gdbm_errno
(auto-import)
nmth000000.o(.idata$4+0x0): undefined reference to
`_nm__gdbm_errno'"

libgdbm is in the library list.  This *may* be just an issue of
sequence of libraries but I don't know.

As I currently only need the client part (ldapsearch for integration
in emacs) I didn't check out how to 'repair' openldap for cygwin.  The
needed client parts are correctly compiled.  Please note that there is
a MSVC .dsp file in the 'build'-subdirectory.  Perhaps it is usable,
but I didn't try.


HTH,

andreas
