This message does not come from anything distributed with OpenLDAP 
software, so it does not help isolate your issue.

You don't specify in what sense you're using OpenLDAP: do you use the 
client libraries as part of a third-party clien to do a bind to a 
third-party server, or do you use OpenLDAP as the LDAP server, or both? 
  If you use the client libraries with a third-party client, did you 
build it with -DLDAP_DEPRECATED=1 ?  This is required to expose 
deprecated API to clients that make use of them.

In any case, I don't see (yet) an OpenLDAP bug, so you should direct 
further communications to openldap-technical@openldap.org, since your 
problem mainly addresses interoperation with other software.
