Sure. I plan to preserve all existing functionalities (or document any
mandatory changes, if any), and condition most of the added features
based on configure detection; even OpenLDAP features change within
versions, and it will take time before distros start shipping OpenLDAP 2.4.

I might have problems testing on diverse architectures, so I'd probably
need someone else to check portability (especially with Windows native
LDAP).
