Sorry, if this was misleading to you.
After the failed ldap patch (missing ldapbackend.hh diff), I always 
try to verify and test the current cvs version to avoid that type of 
errors in the future. If it is not up to date, this effort is going 
to fail and it might happen again.

I've sent you my complete test code + report for verification. 
According to the tests, the code works properly in all my tested 
cases. If you think I forgot a test case, please let me know.

0xffffffff<<bits works as long as bits<32 and this requirement is 
fulfilled by the modulo operation.
