Well, ahem, umm, well, uhhh....

This is a function that never gets called...er...ummm

The best explanation I can give is: it was for some other work we were
doing, didn't finish, but I don't quite remember what it was anymore.

That aside, since it's "cli_get_pdc_name", I'd say it was intentionally
only looking for a PDC.  If you'd like to modify it to look for PDCs and
BDCs,  have fun!  Otherwise we should probably remove it.

Steve, do you have any recollection?
