ITS#4987 slapo-constraint improvement
In reviewing the patch, I see several small details that need to be fixed.
E.g., you added a config keyword but re-used an existing OID for your new
attribute. OIDs must never be re-used, and certainly you must not use two
different attributes with the same OID.
You use strlen/strncat, which are heavily discouraged in our code. (We never
use strcat/strncat; we use strlen only when it's unavoidable.) (Some uses of
strlen already existed in constraint.c; we just didn't get around to
eliminating them.) In general we use bervals instead of flat strings, and
there's almost never a reason to count string lengths at runtime.
I got 3 rejects when applying the patch to my source tree (current HEAD).
I think these points can all be cleaned up pretty easily. Let me know if you
need any particular pointers.
