Looking at a C program here that makes LDAP calls, and that is called by
assembler, the JCL to bind it looks like this:

//LKED      EXEC PGM=IEWBLINK,REGION=2M,PARM='MAP,RENT,CALL(YES),
//             DYNAM(DLL)'
//SYSPRINT  DD  SYSOUT=*
//SYSLMOD   DD DSN=our.output.pdse,DISP=SHR
//SYSLIB    DD DISP=SHR,DSN=CEE.SCEELKED
//          DD DISP=SHR,DSN=GLD.SGLDHDRC
//          DD DISP=SHR,DSN=GLD.SGLDEXPC
//Q1        DD PATH='/usr/lpp/ldap/lib/'
//Q2        DD PATH='/usr/lpp/ldapclient/lib/'
//Q3        DD PATH='/usr/lpp/ldapclient/include/'
//OBJ       DD  DISP=SHR,DSN=our.input.object.lib
//GLD       DD  DISP=SHR,DSN=GLD.SGLDEXPC  Side files
//SYSLIN     DD  *
 INCLUDE OBJ(ourobj)
 INCLUDE OBJ(CEEUOPT)      Useful only if you provide your own CEEUOPT
 INCLUDE GLD(GLDCLDPX)
 LIBRARY Q1,Q2,Q3
 ENTRY CEESTART
 NAME ourname(R)
/*

I hesitate to contribute to the proliferation of "I don't know how it works
but we've been using it forever" JCL decks, and indeed  I'm not sure what
of all this is actually necessary, but it does work here. In particular I
don't understand the mix of GLD. datasets and the /usr/lpp/ldap
directories. You might try it, and if it works then start stripping it down
until it breaks.
