Graham is right ! according to my tests the code in SVN does not silently fail. With the input "cn:<joe" (note: no space between : and <) it flags the error "unsupported URL type at ldiftest2.pl line 10". When the input is "cn: <joe" (note the space between : and <) the LDIF is accepted with cn having "<joe" (without the quotes). IMHO this behaviour is the correct one.
