If I move the 10.11.12.13 address prior to all of the IPv6 pieces, it
works fine.  Other IPv4 tools work without issue.  So if you see weird
behavior out of Net::LDAP on IPv6 enabled systems even if you are only
dealing with IPv4, this may be the cause.

To clarify slightly -- It has to do with the hostname.  Specifying a URI
of ldap://<hostname>:389/ fails.  Specifying a URI with the IPv4 address
works.  So something is broken in how IO::Socket is determining the IPv4
address for the hostname.

After a bit of debugging, the root problem is Perl's implementation of inet_aton. I've filed a bug with Perl core.
