POLA shouldn't be a problem except for the ldap-client lib.  As to why, 
I didn't
want to go through the argument with the user.  I can revert it if you 
want.

I really want a way to split our packages like the dovecot folks do for 
Linux,
but I don't have that understood yet.

As I said, if the project wants me to revert it, I can.
