Description:
------------
I've found that searching the RootDSE does not work with  
PHP, because the base is set to NULL when no base is  
specified. This fact causes the LDAP library to look into 
the systems ldap.conf to take the base from there - which 
is probably not what we want. 
 
The following patch fixes the problem:

Reproduce code:

#  ldapsearch -x -b '' -s base '(objectclass=*)' namingContexts
function get_naming_contexts($server, $admin, $password)
{
  /* Build LDAP connection */
  $ds= ldap_connect ($server);
  if (!$ds) {
    die ("Can't bind to LDAP. No check possible!");
  }
  ldap_set_option($ds, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, 3);
  $r= ldap_bind ($ds, $admin, $password);

  /* Get base to look for naming contexts */
  $sr  = @ldap_read ($ds, "", "objectClass=*", array("namingContexts"));
  $attr= @ldap_get_entries($ds,$sr);
  print_r($attr);
}

get_naming_contexts("what.server.ever.org", "cn=admindn,dc=whatever,dc=org", "secret");

?>


Expected result:
----------------
Array 
( 
    [count] => 1 
    [0] => Array 
        ( 
            [namingcontexts] => Array 
                ( 
                    [count] => 2 
                    [0] => dc=whatever,dc=org 
                    [1] => dc=whatever,dc=shell 
                ) 
 
            [0] => namingcontexts 
            [count] => 1 
            [dn] => 
        ) 
 
) 

Actual result:
--------------
Array 
( 
    [count] => 1 
    [0] => Array 
        ( 
            [count] => 0 
            [dn] => dc=whatever,dc=org 
        ) 
 
)

Note: I did not use your patch as it wouldn't have allowed retaining the current behaviour.
 
You can now pass base_dn NULL to make it use ldap.conf.
