New patches for this are now at git://git.samba.org/abartlet/samba.git
replmetadata-sort-minimal

This now includes tests by introducing this error into a the 4.1.0rc3
reference provision and confirming dbcheck finds and fixes it.

It also has fixes for our python integer handling, ensuring that we
give errors if a python integer won't fit into the C type of the PIDL
-generated structure it is representing.

Can I please have this reviewed into master?

Thanks,

Andrew Bartlett
