short filter search

[Jon Roberts <jon@jonanddeb.net>]

As I recall, OpenLDAP is configured by default to limit search filters 
to at least 3 significant characters. For example, by default the filter

(myattribute=ab*)

would hang for a *long* time. I have been unable to find the prior 
message that explains what needs to be done to change this before 
building OpenLDAP. Could somebody please point to what code I should 
change before compiling if I want to reduce this threshold to say 2?
