In playing with Net::LDAP::Util it became apparent that it is not compliant 
with RFC4514, but instead complies with the older RFC2253.  Specifically 
where #'s in DNs are concerned.  Currently it's expecting # followed by hex 
digits.  This may not be the case once RFC4514 LDIF is in use.

An example DN that it does not handle correctly:

dn: zimbraSignatureName=Signature #1,uid=xyz,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com

The above is not legal with RFC2253, but it is legal with RFC4514.
