OK done. So far so good ..
This is a safe change, right?

I will check on Saturday and see what has happened.

BTW, I got these warnings. I think they are harmless:
passdb/secrets.c: In function `secrets_named_mutex':
passdb/secrets.c:287: warning: passing arg 2 of `tdb_lock_bystring' discards qualifiers from pointer target type
tdb/tdbutil.c: In function `tdb_chainlock_with_timeout':
tdb/tdbutil.c:46: warning: passing arg 1 of `tdb_set_lock_alarm' discards qualifiers from pointer target type
