Adapted by Kurt Zeilenga for inclusion in OpenLDAP. My comments are

================
If I run ldapmodify & co from a script, I don't want to use '-W password'
because the password shows up in the output of 'ps' for everyone,
and I can't pipe the password to 'ldapmodify -w' because -w uses
getpassphrase() which reads from the tty instead of stdin.
So I added '-y file' which reads the password from file. The programs
exit if the file cannot be read.
[Complete contents of file is used as password. Use:
echo -n "secret" > password
to create a file with "secret" as the password. The -n avoids
adding a newline (which would invalidate the password). Note
that echo is a builtin and hence its arguments are not visible
to 'ps'.]
I changed ldapmodify, ldapmodrdn, ldapdelete, ldapsearch, ldapcompare.
I did not bother to change ldappasswd and ldapwhoami, because they
prompt for many passwords. [I fixed up ldapwhoami.]
Rerun autoconf after applying this patch. [Done.]
Note: I do not know if Windows NT has fstat(), so I set HAVE_FSTAT to
undef in portable.nt. (fstat() is used to warn if the file is publicly
readable or writeable.) [I used fstat() to set the buffer size to
read.]
[Note: using the contents of a file extends the tools to support
passwords which could not normally be provided using getpassphrase()
or via the command line.]
