Asyncronous connect(2) in client library?

The client library seems to allow pretty much asynchronous operations except for connect(2), and I've been requested if it's possible to remove that limitation (?). I see there is code in libraries/libldap/os-ip.c to kinda deal with asynchronous connect(2), but it's protected behind

#ifdef notyet

lasting since first import from UMIch's ldap-3.3 ('98); does anybody see any issue in working at that that I'm overlooking?
