ADMon ldap_get_values error

I just updated our Splunk Universal Forwarder that is running admon from 4.2.3 to 5.0.4. After the upgrade, admon is continuing to log events, but I also am getting about 12 of these errors every minute from the forwarder running admon:

09-18-2013 01:35:02.621 -0500 ERROR ExecProcessor - message from ""C:\Program Files\SplunkUniversalForwarder\bin\splunk-admon.exe" -index activedirectory" splunk-admon - ProcessMessage: ldap_get_values error

Since admon appears to be working, I'm not sure what the errors indicate.

As of 4/27/14, my support case on the issue is still "Waiting on Dev"...

As of 11/12/2013, Splunk support still does not have a fix or known root cause.

I am receiving the same errors after an install of a UF (5.0.4) on a DC. Did you find a solution to this? Thanks.
