Error description

  • secldapclntd may core dump with a stack trace
    similar to:
    
    (dbx) t
    .() at 0xdc08
    cacheFindEntry(??, ??, ??) at 0x100125a4
    read_cache(??, ??) at 0x10014914
    getUserFromDN(??) at 0x1000c89c
    : etc
    
    or
    
    (dbx) t
    cacheAppendNode(which = 0, type = 3,...
    cacheCreateEntry(which = 0, in = ...
    unnamed block in update_cache(in = ...
    update_cache(in = 0x20b7a3c8), line ...
    getUserFromDN(s = "..."), line...
    : etc
    
    It is a possibility that cores could be seen in
     other 'cache' functions, not just those shown above.
    

Local fix
