I might have missed some of this thread. Did anyone mention the solution given here? http://www.rexconsulting.net/ldap-protocol-uidnumber.html Store the next number to use in an objectclass in the directory, then use atomic operations to increment it. Would that help?
Although I suppose you need additional controls to ensure that the objectclass which stores the next uid to use is always used, an no other method is ever used to allocate a UID.
