Problem description
===================
Attempt to deserialize the object of class javax.naming.ldap.Rdn fails.

The following minimized test demonstrates this failure.
    
Minimized test:
===============
------- Test.java -------
import javax.naming.*;
import javax.naming.ldap.*;
import java.io.*;

public class Test {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        String filename = "rdn.ser";
        
        Rdn obj = new Rdn("cn=Juicy\\, Fruit");
        ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(
                new FileOutputStream(filename));
        System.out.println("Serializing Rdn ...");
        oos.writeObject(obj);
        System.out.println("PASSED");
        oos.close();
        
        ObjectInputStream ois = new ObjectInputStream(
                new FileInputStream(filename));
        System.out.println("Deserializing Rdn ...");
        Rdn nobj = (Rdn) ois.readObject();
        System.out.println("PASSED");
        ois.close();
    }

}
