NACK
autobind comes into play only when SASL_EXTERNAL auth is used,
the krb5kdc binds as uid=kdc over ldapi w/o any issue.

If these tools are having a problem with ldapi, it is most probably an
underlying bug in our ldap wrappers, as thyese tools should bind as
Directory Manager using simple auth not doing SASL_EXTERNAL auth.

Simo.
