Hm, so EAGAIN (although that's a BSD-ish spelling of the strerror
string, which seems pretty odd in a Debian context).  I don't think
that's actually an error, it's just the daemon's data collection
logic trying to read data that isn't there.  It then goes on and
issues a response, so this must not indicate that the request is
incomplete --- it's just a useless speculative read.

Somebody should get out the LDAP RFCs and decode the packet contents
that this log helpfully provides, but I suspect that we're just looking
at an authentication failure; there's still not much clue as to why.
