[Samba] ldb-tools stand alone different than built-in?

The standalone tools (as packaged by CentOS) don't have all of the 
extensions that are built when you build a Samba DC.  If you have already 
rebuilt CentOS Samba packages with DC support, you need to add samba's ldb 
modules to ldb's module path.

$ ldbadd --help | grep -- --option
$
(no results)

$ export LDB_MODULES_PATH="/usr/lib64/samba/ldb/"
$ ldbadd --help | grep -- --option
   --option=name=value                         Set smb.conf option from command
(results!)

BTW, the help output is over twice as long when it finds samba's ldb 
module path, it contains quite a few additional commands.
