This is an extra safety check. Also regardless it isn't awesome to be creating and deleting lots of DCs in production. You could potentially just test with ldbsearch -H ldap://mydc -k yes However, and that would be harmless.

Now of course that doesn't help for a historical bisect, but we are open to and encourage up- streaming of patches from ports. (We also ask that patches we reject - this has happened - be removed from the port, but can't force that).
