I'd be curious to see the group/group_attr part of your configuration  
(and
to know if you're trying to enforce group membership to log in to RT)

It appears Net::LDAP::Filter is throwing away \s, so it may be worth  
trying to forcibly
escape the \, on line 98ish before passing to new(), but without a  
system exhibiting
this problem, its hard to test a change like that.
