Re: (ITS#4962) inconsistent Bind(rootdn) behavior

[ando@sys-net.it]

Fixed in HEAD.  Now all backends honor rootdn bind (with slight
variations; see back-null) through a common interface; in some cases,
it's a blind fix (shell, perl, passwd).  I think I also fixed an
inconsistency in back-bdb: as far as I understand, a bind with rootdn
and incorrect rootdn password, or in case rootpw was null, originally
passed through, probably either by mistake or to check if an analogous
identity were defined in the database.  I consider this an
inconsistency, but please review.
