problems with referrals in 2.0.7?

[Rainer Clasen <bj@zuto.de>]

I'm currently experimenting with openldap2.0.7. 

Somehow I can't get referrals to work as expected. It seems as if
ldapsearch doesn't pay attention to the base specified in the ref:
attribute. What is wrong with my setup? 


$ ldapsearch -x -C -b "dc=de"

With loglevel 256 I get:

Apr 16 10:42:05 warp slapd[24472]: conn=28 op=0 BIND dn="" method=128

Slapd has 2 databases (in this order):
suffix          "dc=de"
suffix          "dc=zuto,dc=de"

=== dc=de.ldif:
dn: dc=de
objectClass: top
objectClass: dcObject
dc: de

dn: dc=zuto,dc=de
objectClass: extensibleObject
objectClass: dcObject
objectClass: referral
dc: zuto
ref: ldap://warp.zuto.de/dc=zuto,dc=de/
===

When putting dc=zuto,dc=de on a different host running openldap-1.2.11
(and adding -P2 to the ldapsearch cmdline) I get similar results.
