Yes, there is a severe restriction... "caseIgnoreListSubstringsMatch"
and "caseIgnoreListMatch" are NOT implemented in openLDAP (yet)... I
have personally gotten around this by using the attached patch (against
the 2.1 code -- I haven't even begun to play with the 2.2 code yet) as a
kludge that uses the caseIgnoreMatch and caseExactIgnoreSubstringsMatch
routines for caseIgnoreListMatch and caseIgnoreListSubstringsMatch,
respectively.
