"During the authentication phase, mod_auth_ldap searches for an entry in the
directory that matches the username that the HTTP client passes. If a single
unique match is found, then mod_auth_ldap attempts to bind to the directory
server using the DN of the entry plus the password provided by the HTTP
client. Because it does a search, then a bind, it is often referred to as the
search/bind phase. Here are the steps taken during the search/bind phase."

"single unique match" is the point here. So the problem is on your side,
not on apache nor on icingas side. 

So I fail to see a bug here.

Feel free to close the bug or reassign it somewhere else, but I am not able
to find something to ressign it to.
