Description:        Truncated Parameter in LDAP string when spaces contained
Details:

Hello,
It is not possible to include spaces for ldap parameter (lpad://...) because
of a scanf that truncates it as the first space is dicovered.
I have upgraded the file auth.c with

for (i=0;i<127;i++)
    {
    if (basedn[i]=='&') basedn[i]=' ';
    if (prefix[i]=='&') prefix[i]=' ';
    if (suffix[i]=='&') suffix[i]=' ';
    }

in the CheckLDAPAuth(Port *port) routine, and replace each space by '&' in
the pg_hba.conf.
This is not nice but it runs.
