No, it's not so bad. libcli/cldap/cldap.c is clearly supposed to cope
with caller.cldap == NULL - you can see this in the function
cldap_search_state_destructor() which checks:

if (s->caller.cldap)

before doing anything. Can you try this (amended) patch ?

Thanks so much for your timely testing !

Cheers,

	Jeremy.
