Currently libldap is using blocking IO when performing the SSL handshake for ldaps:// connections (and when performing the StartTLS operation). The can lead to the client blocking forever in the ssl lib (in SSL_connect in case of openssl) if e.g. the server for whatever reason stops responding. It would be very helpful if libldap would use non-blocking IO during the handshake at least when LDAP_OPT_NETWORK_TIMEOUT (or LDAP_OPT_TIMEOUT?) are set.
