Re: (ITS#3454) slapcat splits long items in its output

Mira,

And I note that test001 input includes cases of folded input
to ensure slapadd(8) works properly.  If test001 is failing on
your box, you should investigate and, as appropriate, file
another report.  This report will be closed as slapcat(8)
is behaving as intended.
