This bug appeared in 0.16 as part of the changeover to using Convert::ASN1
instead of Convert::BER. I belive this bug is now fixed in 0.17

PS: 0.18 will be release soon with the following changes

Change 525 on 2000/05/22 by <gb...@po...> (Graham Barr)

        Bundle::Net::LDAP
        - Change Convert::ASN to Convert::ASN1

Change 522 on 2000/05/19 by <gb...@po...> (Graham Barr)

        Net::LDAP::Filter
        - Return an error when there are unmatched ()

Change 517 on 2000/05/15 by <gb...@po...> (Graham Barr)

        Net::LDAP::Search
        - fix bug in ->as_struct introduced by new code in Net::LDAP::Entry

and it will also now run with perl5.004.
