Yes.

This is a fix to a corner-case that was discovered during RHCS 8.1 Q/E 
testing.

The method where this change is implemented is in constructing a 
multi-line entry
(which contain embedded NEWLINES) as a part of an LDIF record, and is 
called by
entries that require this type of formatting.    This strips all 
white-space at the end
of the value returned; any white-space at the beginning of each line of 
a value must
be maintained.

Each final LDIF entry (single as well as multi-line entry) is output as 
(entry + NEWLINE),
and thus the corner case that exposed this flaw contained an entry that 
had been
terminated with a NEWLINE causing a blank line to be interjected into 
the LDIF record.

This fix has been tested by development, and will be further tested by 
Q/E during
RHCS 8.1 testing.
