But still you can do the bind async, and just close the fd on the client side on timeout. I don't see why connect() timeout can't be handled the same way. (ignoring the problem that there is no API call AFAICT to just drop the connection)
I'll note that there's been some interest in that area --- I loosely have the same need (see http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-devel/200611/msg00000.html) but unfortunately it's not in my priority list, considering that it might have relevant impact on the client library.
