There is another alternative.  The root of the problem is that the filter that 
is being built can be interpreted by the Windows SDK as invalid if the user id 
attribute is nothing.  The function that creates the filter, 
authn_ldap_build_filter(), already has an #ifdef for the microsoft ldap sdk.  
Can you patch the code within the #ifdef to make sure that an invalid filter 
for the microsoft sdk is never produced?  If so, then all of the error 
checking will just fall into place and there won't be a special case for 
Windows when checking for a failed login. 

In reality an invalid filter should result in a general error rather than an 
authentication failure.  A truely invalid filter could be the result of a bad 
filter being passed in on the LDAP Url.  If we added the special case to check 
for LDAP_INVALID_FILTER that was equivalent to a failed login, then a truely 
invalid filter would be reported incorrectly.
