The ldap_get_dn man page has the following prototype for ldap_str2dn:

int ldap_str2dn( const char *str, LDAPDN **dn, unsigned flags )

However, ldap.h has:

LDAP_F( int ) ldap_str2dn LDAP_P(( LDAP_CONST char *str, LDAPDN *dn, unsigned flags ));

Note the difference for the second argument. This is related to, later in the man page:

typedef struct ldap_ava { char *la_attr; struct berval *la_value; unsigned la_flags; } LDAPAVA;

typedef LDAPAVA** LDAPRDN; typedef LDAPRDN** LDAPDN;

but ldap.h says:

typedef struct ldap_ava { struct berval la_attr; struct berval la_value; unsigned la_flags; void *la_private; } LDAPAVA;

typedef LDAPAVA** LDAPRDN; typedef LDAPRDN* LDAPDN;

Note the type difference for LDAPDN (which explains the earlier varience) and for la_attr.
