--- Comment #5 from Howard Chu hyc@openldap.org --- (In reply to varunpatil from comment #4)
Patches to change constants that are already redefinable at compile time will not be accepted.
Why though? This seems like a very crappy policy.
This bug took a very long time to diagnose and I've no doubt others might run into it if they bothered to compile for Windows.
What bug? You haven't identified any bug. OpenLDAP builds and runs fine on Windows, and the slapd server handles thousands of concurrent connections, same as when built on Linux. There is no bug here.
Changing the default as you have would cripple slapd built on Windows, and would be a significant backward-incompatible change. Allowing such changes would really be a crappy policy.
