Ok.  So as long as I use OpenLDAP, is it safe to assume that the order
of attributes returned by ldap_{first,next}_attribute will match the
order of the attribute list originally passed to ldap_search?  Of
course, some attributes may be missing, but the ones that are there
will be in the same order, right?
