Hello,

When connecting over TLS to an LDAP server with high packet loss, my calls to
ldap_sasl_bind_s() block forever some of the time despite have set a 10s limit
on all of LDAP_OPT_NETWORK_TIMEOUT, LDAP_OPT_TIMEOUT and LDAP_OPT_TIMELIMIT.

I see the following stack trace on the deadlocked process.

    @     0x7f2ff0c0f8d0 (unknown)

Inspecting the source, I see that SSL_connect() is called from
tlso_session_connect(). Does openldap attempt to pass timeout information to
openssl?

Sorry for the vague bug report. The issue is non-deterministic so it is hard to
provide too much information. Please let me know what I can do to be more
helpful.

I was able to find an old posting (from 2006) reporting a similar issue. I'm
uncertain if the root cause is the same or not though.
