Some debugging symbols, at least the line number would have been of
help; anyway, this is more and more convincing of my suspicion about
some 64 bit issue (I haven't noticed yet on my amd64, though) because
ldap_{sg}et_option() do a lot of pointer-to-anytype conversion with
explicit casts, and this is a typical good chance for type mismatch
because the cast inhibits compiler warnings.

Can you try your best to get line numbers out of there?  I've downloaded
autofs 4.1.3 sources (is it the version you're using?) and the only
calls to ldap_set_option() is to set the protocol version; in my copy of
the file it occurs at line 58 rather than 66.  The datum is an int, so
that call should be fine.  A LDAP * resulting from a call to ldap_init()
is passed after checking it's not NULL.

After defining -DLDAP_DEPRECATED, the only warning I get is about an
automatic var that could be used uninitialized, in lookup_wild(); this
should have nothing to do with your issue (I'll post a note to the
developers).

Please feedback.
