nah, this error occours well past the ldif parsing layer - it's actually
a problem on the server.

If you look at ldap_server/ldap_backend.c, the macro VALID_DN_SYNTAX
takes two argument, the first being the DN, and the second is the number
of components it must have.  Set that to 0 and you should be right.

I don't see why this layer should be trying to determine if a DN is
valid (ldb can do that very well itself).  This looks like Simo's code,
according to 'git blame', so I'll flip-pass this question to him...
