asserts and manadatory build instructions (was ITS#8240)

But this is the first time I've heard about -DNDEBUG being mandatory when compiling binary packages for production use. Does it have other effects? And what are general rules for assert statements in OpenLDAP code? In my own (Python) code assert statements are supposed to be only triggered if something goes wrong *internally* (type issues etc.). If somebody manages to trigger an assert statement with invalid input from "outside" I always consider this to be a serious bug revealing insufficient error handling even though e.g. web2ldap just logs the exception but won't crash. YMMV, but please clarify. I also wonder whether there are more mandatory rules for building packages and where I can find them. Please don't get me wrong: My inquiry is in good faith to avoid unnecessary ITS based on misunderstanding. Ciao, Michael.

Hello everyone, At this point, I believe we're ready to being testing for a 2.4.46 release. The primary focus on this release has been to fix several long standing issues with replication, both for "standard" and "delta" based syncrepl. These fixes have been tested against databases and workloads known to trigger the problems that were encountered. Special thanks to Paul B. Henson for doing additional validation for those issues that were discovered in his deployment.
