This looks *much* better.  Thanks!

For my part, I'll get you a doco on idmap and groups this evening :-)

The only other case to watch is when we 'add' accounts from another
SAM.  pdbedit -i foo -o ldap.  They are not marked as 'changed' -
perhaps they should be.  The other option is to detect the 'add' flag
and treat as 'changed'.  This is what the old code did. (yes, it was
ugly :-)).

Also, you should cope with NULL as well as "" in your 

strlen(newval) > 0 test for values we should delete.  A slightly more
clear comment that "" or NULL -> delete would also be good.

Again, this looks like a very good patch!
