OpenLDAP does not properly negotiate ciphers with clients

Issue

OpenLDAP is not following RFC 5246 when negotiating ciphers for communication.

When the following is set for OpenLDAP:

security ssf=256 tls=256 update_ssf=256 simple_bind=256 update_tls=256
TLSCipherSuite HIGH:-SSLv2

And the following command is run:

openssl s_client -connect localhost:636 -key /etc/pki/private/host.name.pem -cert /etc/pki/public/host.name.pub -cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA:ADH-AES256-SHA:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-SHA

Then, the following is output in the system log:

Oct 23 19:05:36 host.name slapd[32576]: conn=1000 fd=13 TLS established tls_ssf=128 ssf=128
Oct 23 19:05:42 host.name slapd[32576]: conn=1001 fd=13 TLS established tls_ssf=128 ssf=128

This should have been a 256 bit cihper. And, since the SSF is set to 256, all communication fails.
