[Samba] PANIC in pdb_ldap.c

[Philip Chambers]

I have now identified the cause and it appears that mods applied pdb_ldap.c did not 
take ldapsam_compat mode into account.  ldapsam_getsampwnam() is trying to get the 
LDAP_ATTR_MOD_TIMESTAMP attribute from attrib_map_v22 when it is only present in 
attrib_map_v30.

Is ther a quick fix to this bug?

Phil.
