I have been notified (off-list) by Bert that package 2235 
(http://powerdnssec.org/downloads/pdns-3.0-rc2.20110714.2235.tar.gz) 
fixes long-standing Ticket #260 (= #323) 
[http://wiki.powerdns.com/trac/ticket/260].

I've compiled and tested and it works fine.

Thank you Bert.

If by any chance Bert has time to see what's wrong with pdns_control 
(http://wiki.powerdns.com/trac/ticket/37) when used with ldap backend, 
then PowerDNS can boast standalone (without need of external software) 
LDAP support at (semi-) master level. (Full Master support will be 
available after Ticket #318 is closed, not any time soon I am afraid, 
unless someone takes over LDAP backend support.)

Thanks again,
Nick
