Lots of ideas:
   shoot your stupid /bin/ld that doesn't do what you tell it to and get one
that does.
   delete RH72 and only use RH73
   use your RH71 binaries on your RH72 system
   switch to SuSE Linux
   use OpenLDAP 2.1, which no longer uses those obsolete functions
   patch your ldapsearch.c so it no longer uses the offending function:
