For building Samba under Solaris 8 with the libldap from Sun directory server
5.2 SDK libsasl is also needed otherwise configure will report undefined symbols
in libldap when checking libldap. Therefor configure has to do a check for
libsasl. I have added the check to configure after the check of liblber ans
before the check of libldap. I have tested it under Solaris 8 and it works well. 

Hope it would be in the next release.
