it's in subsystems/Authentication and it's included by subsystems/Authentication/ldap and subsystems/Authentication/ldap-ad

You can still override any of the beans within common-ldap-context.xml for your ldap or ldap-ad subsystem by using the Spring override mechanism described here

http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Alfresco_Subsystems#Spring_Beans

So for example in

alfresco/extension/subsystems/Authentication/ldap/myinstance/custom-ldap-context.xml

or

alfresco/extension/subsystems/Authentication/ldap-ad/myinstance/custom-ldap-context.xml

You will need a 3.3 nightly build in order to do this.

FYI the nightly builds are labelled v3.2 again. It should be fine to use these.
