OK, here's the new bug:

https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12381

and here is (I think) the patch. Can you test this
and let me know if it fixes your test case ?

 CC:ing to samba-technical for followups.

Cheers,

    Jeremy. 

 Results not good m'fraid. 

It seems cldap_socket_init() should be setting up the cldap_socket
(param 3 is struct cldap_socket **), but obviously doesn't get this far.
When this is passed to cldap_search_send() it segfaults on line 603: 

if (!cldap->connected) { 

This is going to be icky, isn't it?
