I don't know for sure, but I bet it has to do with the "limits" command, 
and the need for some things to have limitless internal searches.  There 
was a bug about this on the ITS website, of which there was a rather 
lengthy discussion on the devel list.

See the thread: "commit: ldap/clients/tools ldapsearch.c "

around June 21, 2004.
