When I checked on the patch file in my Emacs window this morning I saw the
"modified buffer" flag was still on because I hadn't saved the final
version. Grrrr. It included the function declarations and one last fix.
Sorry about that. When I extract the last ID number from the cookie, I
have to make sure we're in the same objectClass as when the ID number was
saved.
I've replaced the patch file on my web server. If it doesn't fix the
root entry bug you're seeing, could you show me the search you're
performing? I'll have to more closely follow what's happening in the
switch ( bsi.bsi_scope ) {
segment around line 2115 in backsql_search() to see if there is some
special case for the root entry.
