And anyway, *_ext family was designed in 1998 and first implemented in libldap in 1999. ldap_search
was tagged as deprecated in 2006. There is no reason to put those ifdef in the first place, I
don't think people like to have 6 years old unmaintained code running on their webserver. On
windows those functions are supported since Windows 2k ...

Does php-ldap compile under 2.3.48 without my patch ? (tests are already available in tests
directory).

I'm still testing the functionality in whole. Please add also some tests for what you did so
far.

I've tested your last patch with ifdefs, the code compiles at least :) But the version check
isn't smart enough, thus I get errors when compiling with openldap 2.3.48, but it pass though
with 2.4.33 . That's because both have api version 3001. So that means for one that some more
#ifdef are needed there, and second - that at least for what I see we should check exact by lib
version, no by api version. And the point lays somewhere betwee 2.3.48 and 2.4.33 :)

I did a new patch that bundle both patch and use #ifdef. I'm not sure about LDAP_API_VERSION,
but > 2000 seems to be ok.
Also, in the original version used ldap_modify_ext_s, I changed to ldap_modify_s.

Hi!

The patch looks good.

However I would prefer to add some #ifdef and to use the old versions when an old 
ldap client is used.

We may as well drop these old versions in php-next tho'.
