Summary: Resource leaks in ldap external lookup

Initial Comment:
ldap_lookup() calls 'return NULL' in error case without freeing the allocated LDAP handle.  This leaks a filedescriptor and brings OpenLDAP in a state that all subsequent lookups fail with

| External Lookup: Backend initialization failure: Success (0)


I detected this problem when an LDAP server was unreachable.

Message:
I am using starttls when connecting to LDAP server.  But I can not say
whether it happens only in this situation.

Message:
Hello Enrico,

Can you confirm that this problem only happens when using starttls to
communicate to the Ldap server?

Regards,

Hugo Monteiro.
