I was encoding a ber of the form "{{something}" (note the missing "}") using HEAD's liblber. ber_flatten() was (correctly?) returning an empty value; perhaps it should return an error code, indicating that the ber is incomplete? Am I missing some function to test the validity of a ber?
I think this'll do it, but OpenLDAP is a a bit too smart about ber sometimes so I wouldn't trust it without testing. I suggest you run make test, remove anything that causes the assert, then remove the assert and commit. I'm a bit busy with other things at the moment...
