RE: elf error: file ../../libraries/libldbm/libldbm.a: elf_getarsym (ITS#2726)

[hyc@highlandsun.com]

Thanks, this is a known problem that occurs on some systems when back-ldbm is
not being used. In these cases libldbm.a is an empty file and some linkers
don't accept that as a legal input file. The fix is to remove any reference
to libldbm.a from the slapd and slapd/tools Makefile.
