Bug description: LDAP "Decoding error" when requesting non-existent attributes in a
search op.
When providing e.g. the ldap_search function with an array of attributes to be returned, and an
attribute in this array doesn't exist in the targeted LDAP node, an LDAP "Decoding
error" occurs.
In PHP3 I used to send in an array("dn") to only have the "dn" property
returned. But since "dn" isn't a real LDAP attribute, I suppose I could have written
any text in this array to only have the dn returned.
The possibility to have only the "dn" returned would be useful in PHP4 as well.
