As far as I understood, only 2 backends are needed, one for normal
operation (as 'authoritative' db) and one for migration (as rwite-
only backup db).
Why don't you compile two versions of each backend, one for each
purpose, with the interface functions of the migration backend
redefined, e.g.
#if MIGRATION
# define pdb_add_sam_account mpdb_add_sam_account
...
#endif
This way, you get two seperate name spaces for authoritative and
migration backend.
