Unrelated to OP's problem, I've seen LDIF files that had UTF8 characters and/or weird EOL characters, that many editors will helpfully hide from you.
UTF-8 characters are perfectly legal in values, as documented in both the RFC and the ldif(5) manpage.
DOS-style line-endings (CRLF instead of just LF) are also perfectly legal (though the ldif(5) manpage doesn't mention that). You can even mix CRLF and LF line-endings inside a single file.
(Really folks, the RFC isn't that hard to read.)
