I have developed a custom backend that uses the test_filter function to
determine
if an entry is matching a given input filter. Filter on any of the entry
attribute but Uid works fine. When i specify i filter on the uid attribute i get
very strange results for example:

- when i use the complete value of the attribute such as uid=e497004 no result
is returned, but there is an entry with that value.
- when i use some regular expressions the result is correclty such as uid=e* the
corresponding entry is correctly returned.
