2.1.12 segfault with ldap module

While setting up freeradius recently, we noticed that it would segfault
on a restart after being used.  The segfault line would be something
like:
kernel: radiusd[2608]: segfault at 7feb7471f480 ip 00007feb7471f480 sp 00007fff451ea168 error 14 in libfreeradius-eap-2.1.12.so[7feb74d2b000+9000]

At first I thought this would be something in the eap module, but after
building a debug build and running it in gdb I got this backtrace:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

After seeing that it looks like it's actually the ldap module causing
problems, I commented out all of my bits that use the ldap module and
it doesn't segfault on shutdown.  I also tried it with ldap but without
TLS enabled and it shut down clean still.


Has anyone seen this before?  Any solutions?  For the time being, I
guess I'll run the ldap module without TLS enabled.  Segfaults, even
benign ones, seem to get everyone antsy...
