Found out what I was doing wrong - but there are a couple of small improvements that Net::LDAP could use

Graham,

sorted out why I could not see what was going wrong. I had assumed the
callback received a Net::LDAP::Entry or undefined. Doh!

However, the DESTROY is still being called and killing the error
messages - so this could do with being added to the package.

Also, the following patch is needed to fix a warning which points at a
bug.
