Looking at RFC4313 section 5.2.1.2. SASL Authentication Initiation and
Protocol Exchange(page 16):

   Clients sending a BindRequest message with the sasl choice selected
   SHOULD send a zero-length value in the name field.  Servers receiving
   a BindRequest message with the sasl choice selected SHALL ignore any
   value in the name field.

So, when using SASL, binddn should be empty.
