Bug description:  LDAP modify functions do not handle special characters

Hi,

I am working with PHP 4.0.5 and OpenLDAP 2.0.11.

I encounter problems when modifying some entries with attributes containing
special chars (such as å, ø...). The error returned by the LDAP server is
"invalid syntax".

I have read some documentation about this. OpenLDAP can accept special
chars, provided values are base64-encoded, when we use the tools that come
with the application (ldapadd, ldapmodify, etc.).

But how to do this from PHP functions? I tried to base64_encode the
values,
it naturally didn't do the trick (those values were considered as normal,
and thus were not decoded - this polutes my directory.) Same goes for
urlencoding.

Please help!
