ldap rebind?

[freeradius at corwyn.net]

In the release notes for 2.1.8 it says:
Document "chase_referrals" and "rebind" in raddb/modules/ldap

Well 2.1.7 says:
         #  The following two configuration items are for Active Directory
         #  compatibility.  If you see the helpful "operations error"
         #  being returned to the LDAP module, uncomment the next
         #  two lines.
         #
         # chase_referrals = yes
         # rebind = yes

which is no different than 2.1.8.   What's different? Is this 
documentation somewhere? I'm especially interested in rebind. Wat's it do?
