I'm interested in updating Net::LDAPapi so that it no longer uses the deprecated C API. ldap.h is nicely commented on the replacement functions for just about all of the deprecated functions, except for:

ldap_sort_entries ldap_sort_values ldap_sort_strcasecmp

of which Net::LDAPapi only uses ldap_sort_entries.

Is there a replacement function for this? If not, any thoughts on what the steps are to duplicate that functionality?

So no one else knows what these functions do either? ;)

Well, functions tend to get deprecated due to neglect. If nobody has ever used them thus far.....
