RE: long time search for non-existent attributs (ITS#2506)

[extern.hendrik.harms@volkswagen.de]

ITS#2506:
I've added the fix to my openldap-2.1.19 and it works.

ITS#2507:
it works also, but it is not very fast. CPU-load and io-wait are very 
high during the seach, but the ldap gets a result and survives. 

Thanks,
Hendrik Harms
