I've found a good solution I think.

I've made ldap_search() (list and read also) capable of parallel searches by passing an array of link identifiers. In that case it always returns an array of the same size as the link array where each entry is the result entry if we got an entry from the server, else it's FALSE. So, for normal searches, we get the behavior we want from ldap_search() by doing ldap_search(array($ds), ... For more info on how it works, see the mail I sent on parallel ldap_search() a couple of days ago.
