Just guessing from the function name, but does this go away if you don't
configure --with-ldap?

If so it's presumably a portability issue in this recent patch:

2006-03-06 12:41  momjian
* configure, configure.in, src/backend/libpq/auth.c,src/backend/libpq/hba.c,
src/backend/libpq/pg_hba.conf.sample,src/include/pg_config.h.in,src/include/libpq/hba.h: This patchadds native LDAP
auth,for those platforms that don't have PAM(such as Win32, but also unixen without PAM). On Unix, usesOpenLDAP. On
win32,uses the builin WinLDAP library.Magnus Hagander
 

I'd counsel just leaving --with-ldap off until Magnus gets back from
vacation.  We can always revert the patch later if he can't fix it.
(There's some fairly ugly stuff going on at lines 69-89 of
backend/libpq/auth.c, which I bet is the root of the trouble, but
I'm not going to dig further --- I've wasted more than enough time
on Windows this week ;-))
