+54. The LDAP lookup was not handling a return of LDAP_RES_SEARCH_REFERENCE. A
+    patch that reportedly fixes this has been added. I am not expert enough to
+    create a test for it. This is what the patch creator wrote:
+
+      "I found a little strange behaviour of ldap code when working with
+      Windows 2003 AD Domain, where users was placed in more than one
+      Organization Units. When I tried to give exim partial DN, the exit code
+      of ldap_search was unknown to exim because of LDAP_RES_SEARCH_REFERENCE.
+      But simultaneously result of request was absolutely normal ldap result,
+      so I produce this patch..."
+
+55. Some experimental protocols are using DNS PTR records for new purposes. The
+    keys for these records are domain names, not reversed IP addresses. The
+    dnsdb lookup now tests whether it's key is an IP address. If not, it leaves
+    it alone. Component reversal etc. now happens only for IP addresses.
+
+56. Improve error message when ldap_search() fails in OpenLDAP or Solaris LDAP.
