[Fedora-directory-users] dbverify

I've done exhaustive verification of equality and presence indexes for 
my directory to verify that ldap is working properly so I'm going to 
treat dbverify as buggy for now.

I can't find any pattern in my data to explain what the bug is though. 
22 of the 45 indexes are affected
syntaxes are oid,directorystring,ia5string,integer and telephonenumber
index types are either e,ep,eps or aeps

I'll fill out a bug report later tonight,

Dan Lannom
