Hello.

  (ldap-search "uid=fgg" "localhost" '("displayName"))

returns 

  ((("Friedrich Georg GÃ¶the")))

while 

  (ldap-search "uid=fgg" "localhost" '("sn"))

gives

  ((("Göthe")))

That is because ldap-attribute-syntaxes-alist lacks (displayname . 15).
The displayName attribute is a part of InetOrgPerson schema (RFC2798).

In GNU Emacs 23.3.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.22.1)
 of 2011-05-28 on kotik

The bug is in trunk too.
