The same thing with ldap_url_parse in C code (2.4.17 version), in my 
application - the problem starts from ldap_url_parse function.

This works:

 int connection_res = ldap_initialize(&ldx,"ldapi://%2Ftest%2Fldapsock");

And this doesn't work:

 int connection_res = ldap_initialize(&ldx,"ldapi:///test/ldapsock");

ldap_err2string(connection_res) is "Can't contact LDAP server" 

When I use ldap_url_parse function, returned urld ( urld->lud_host to be 
exact ) is wrong - taken string with '%2F' ( "ldapi://%2Ftest%2Fldapsock" 
), it returns "ldapi:///test/ldapsock". So next ldap_initialize call 
failed ldap_initialize works only if I use "ldapi://%2Ftest%2Fldapsock" 
directly. For now I'm going to "fix" returned ruld->lud_host in my app,
I'm still not sure whether it's debian/openldap build related issue,
or openldap bug, anyway there IS something WRONG with this.
