Yes, that really seems to be the case. It looks like this is a 
bug/feature of Apache Directory API. Or perhaps the root cause is your 
use of system property to initialize the API. That property tells *all* 
instances of the directory API to initialize with the accelerator 
classes, but the classes are not available to all instances.

Bundling the accelerator classes with midPoint or the LDAP connector 
should do it. But it is a hack, not really a clean solution.

Maybe the clean solution would be to avoid use of system property and 
initialize only your instance of the API programaticaly from when you 
instantiate it in the Fortress core?
