As _sslconnect is actually almost identically to _connect, it would make
more sense to me to use a boolean 'ssl' parameter and prefix the original
host with ldaps:/ in _connect, if set.

Can someone using the plain LDAP driver please verify that this patch
doesn't break anything there?

Thanks for the patch, before submitting a new version, please review the
indentation in your added code.
