That's a bug that is now fixed (was reported to me over dinner at
FOSDEM). If Mozilla is entirely disabled, PostgreSQL should not try to
use it.

That's yet another problem :-(

It seems the build variable LDAPSDKLIB is not (properly) set in
your build... It is supposed to contain "nsldap32v50.lib", which
provides these symbols. Could I see your build environment? (In
particular what is the value of "WITH_LDAP", "LDAPSDKLIB",
"WITH_OPENLDAP").
