They should be identical from a binary interface perspective, and from
what I can tell, neither the original version included with 7.1 nor the
current erratum supply this symbol. Both versions also link to the same
set of libraries, so I don't see how changing libldap would have caused
this to fail.
If you run "ldd /opt/dcelocal/lib/libdce.so.1.0.1" (or better still, the
application) and one of the listed libraries is libkrb5, then that would
explain it, as we had a problem with an older erratum that produced
exactly this symptom. It was corrected in a subsequent erratum, though.
HTH,
