Maybe a bug but, if the LDAP library can do it then autofs should just
do it. There isn't any specific code to handle it.

So
ldap://server1 server2/.....

should work since the ldap_init call, I believe, will take such an
argument. But then we need to check that autofs isn't getting in the
road when it reads the ldap string to start with.
