The error is in the code, not in the man; not even in the __real__ code,
but in a malformed check at ldap_back_db_config().  This was fixed long
ago in HEAD and apparently never backported, or the backport was lost at
some point.  I suggest the initial (working) syntax is used, and the
(erroneous) warning ignored.  I'm preparing a (trivial) patch for 2.2.18.
