When configuring and compiling OpenLDAP using --with-threads=no flag, the test suite fails to complete. It seems the test suite appears to be dependent on threads for a successful run. Unfortunately, this test suite issue makes it difficult to know if LDAP is functioning correctly when compiled without threads.

Reproduce this by using the following:

./configure --with-threads=no make depend make make test

Note, all backends fail at least one test when threads are disabled. For example, if you set --enable-bdb=no --enable-hdb=no and leave only --enable-mdb=yes, mdb itself fails the test suite. The same for bdb and hdb if they are the only backends available.

If you plan on retaining --with-threads=no feature, someone might want to update the test suite to properly test LDAP when threads are disabled. Or alternatively, inform the user that 'make test' doesn't support testing LDAP when threads are disabled.
