+Author: Steve Langasek <vorlon@debian.org>
+
+OpenLDAP upstream conservatively assumes that certain resolver functions
+(getaddrinfo, getnameinfo, res_query, dn_expand) are not re-entrant; but we
+know that the glibc implementations of these functions are thread-safe, so
+we should bypass the use of this mutex. This fixes a locking problem when
+an application uses libldap and libnss-ldap is also used for hosts
+resolution.
+
+Closes Debian bug #340601.
+
+Not suitable for forwarding upstream; might be made suitable by adding a
+configure-time check for glibc and disabling the mutex only on known
+thread-safe implementations.
