Hi,
I have found undocumented parameter for ldap.conf in libraries/libldap/init.c: RESTART, and has written the missed section for ldap.conf(5):
ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/alex-deiter-061111.patch
This option has been recently documented in ldap_get_option(3), but honestly it's not clear to me what its intended usage is. I'll check your patch and eventually apply it to HEAD.
As I recall there was some debate about making this available in ldap.conf, since setting it globally can break some applications that aren't expecting one behavior or another. I believe the option should remain undocumented, and the support for parsing it from ldap.conf should likely be removed. It should only be available when a program specifically requests it via ldap_set_option.
