Routinely in the C module part of python-ldap all calls to libldap functions are wrapped by a thread lock. But I wonder whether that's really necessary for all of them, especially regarding ldap_str2dn() and ldap_dn2str().
Mainly for python-ldap this question boils down to whether ldap_bv2dn_x() and ldap_bv2rdn_x() are re-entrant. Glancing over these it seems they are re-entrant. But it would be nice if one of the OpenLDAP developers could confirm that.
Ciao, Michael.
