56 major restrictions as compared to normal LDAP:
58 - each record must have a unique key field
59 - the key must be representable as a NULL terminated C string and may not
60 contain a comma or braces
62 major restrictions as compared to tdb:
64 - no explicit locking calls, but we have transactions when using ldb_tdb
72 An individual lump of data in a result comes in this format. The
73 pointer will usually be to a UTF-8 string if the application is
74 sensible, but it can be to anything you like, including binary data
75 blobs of arbitrary size.

78 include the terminator.
