I haven't looked in the debugger yet to verify, but I think you can call =
->parent on the first argument passed to the callback to get the =
Net::LDAP object.

This is only based on looking at 'sub entry' and 'sub decode' in =
Search.pm - the latter shows how the callback is called, and the former =
shows us using ->parent.

HTH!
