What are you trying to do, in a larger sense?  The directory server  
is quite correctly telling you this is an error.

If you want to use SASL binds and DIGEST-MD5, then what is wrong with  
-U?  Why do you want to use -D?  Do you have some external  
application expecting to use the commandline tools with -D?  If so,  
this isn't an OpenLDAP problem at all and you should make a wrapper  
script or fix your broken app.
