As far as OpenLDAP sources, yes, it is only available in OpenLDAP 2.3. Some
folks have successfully back-ported it to OpenLDAP 2.2, though, and it is
also part of Symas's packaged and tested distribution of OpenLDAP based on
OL 2.2, CDS Gold v2.

The original announcement for 2.3 detailed the main differences between
OpenLDAP 2.2 and 2.3. After that, you would need to look at the Changes
file. See 

http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-announce/200505/msg00000.html

for the 2.3 Beta announcement.
