It is possible to script this with Perl and Net::SSLeay.  The
s_client command will not once connected "speak" LDAP, not even
to the extent of being able to SASL authenticate or report which
mechanisms are available.

Personally, I would prefer to see support for reporting TLS features
of LDAP servers as a verbosity feature in ldapsearch or similar.
