Subtree delete can't return references in the final result anyway,
because from such a referral, only one operation should be performed on
one of the returned URIs to progress the operation.  Subtree delete may
need to return several continuation references.  Also, the referral
result code means that the operation was not performed, not that it was
partially performed.

Also, 'ietf-ldapext@netscape.com' should be 'ldapext@ietf.org'.
