I've added the tdb_transaction_active(), but I'm not sure
it will be the way to fix things in ldb. There's more discussion
required. If we get something useful in the next weeks it can
be backported as bugfix, it's not required to fix all bugs before
4.7.0rc1.

https://git.samba.org/?p=metze/samba/wip.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/master4-ldb-1
passed 'autobuild-private.sh samba samba-systemkrb5' twice. I'll some
complete autobuilds now.

I'll fix up the commit message and comments around the tests.

The important thing that's not tested yet is that the
ldb:wscript: define EXPECTED_SYSTEM_LDB_VERSION_{MAJOR,MINOR,RELEASE}
commit release works to reject builds with older samba versions.
