Well, I'm afraid I'm no LDAP expert. Most of the code in ldap.c is
contributed (though I've tidied up some of it). As I quoted from the
ChangeLog:

It seems as though the patch didn't fix all of it. If someone sends me
another patch I'll be happy to consider it (though not for 4.64, unless
it is *very* small, because I'm wrapping that one up). I don't have the
knowledge (or the testing facilities) to try to fix this myself. Or, at
the moment, any time to do the necessary research or figure out how one
might test this. (I really don't understand LDAP much at all.)
