I managed to get it working by forcing perl-ldap to bind using V3 of the
protocol. It seems that the server returns the wrong thing when it's called
using V2. When I did that, the references method started working and I didn't
have to parse the reference out of the error message. The code is cleaner
now, but it was a pain getting to this point.
