This: struct berval x = BER_BVC("cn=foo"); dnParent(x, x); keeps x.bv_val pointing at "cn=foo" instead of at the \0 behind it. bv_len is correctly set to 0 though.

Could be sort of intentional. As far as I remember, dnParent() is supposed to leave the second argument untouched, as it is often used on read-only data. Probably, the most appropriate fix consists in passing a temporary as the first argument.
