Tried it now (with PHP8.4.16 from Debian sid).  The empty array appears
to needlessly return all user attributes, so I changed [0] the patch to
use `['1.1']` instead.

With PHP8.4 `['1.1']` works like `[null]` (but the latter is
undocumented and ceases to work with PHP8.5).  AFAICT ldap_search(3) is
unclear how an empty attribute array is treated, but is clear [1] that
`{LDAP_NO_ATTRS, NULL}` should be used to avoid fetching any attribute.
