Well, being blunt, you know how I think about dependencies
on ldb.

Can't we put those functions that are of more general use
into a separate codebase? I've just come across the base64
routines that might benefit from the same. Looking at
heimdal for example, this has the base64 routines in roken.

To not create a dependency on talloc, what about putting
the base64 routines into libreplace? Both would
encode/decode into a preallocated buffer, for decode it
would be safe to use it in-place.
