I've requested some more information on the above bug report.

Looking back over ITS, it seems this has been a long-standing problem with 
nss-ldap.

http://www.openldap.org/its/index.cgi/Incoming?id=3874;expression=liblber
http://www.openldap.org/its/index.cgi/Incoming?id=4014;expression=liblber

http://www.openldap.org/its/index.cgi/Incoming?id=4445;expression=liblber

Unfortunately the information in the other reports is a bit confusing; e.g. 
the redhat bug indicates that a kernel update fixed the issue. That doesn't 
really make any sense. Hopefully we can get some consistent info to track it 
down this time.
