Which lines is this in longlong.h?  Is it 318 and 365-380 ?

This doesn't make total sense.  The autoconf check should have
detected that.  Did you end up with a gpgkeys_ldap that didn't resolve
host names, or did it not compile at all?

It's required for any scheme that is host-based (RFC 2396).  For the
schemes that ship with GnuPG, that means both hkp and ldap, but not
mailto.
