Here's a patch that implements that.
Docs are currently ont included because I'm waiting for the
restructuring of tha section to be done (started by me in a separate
thread) first, but the code is there for review.
Right now it just truncates the dn at NAMEDATALEN - so treating it the
same as we do with hostnames. My guess is this is not a big problem
because in the case of long DNs, most of the time the important stuff
is at the beginning anyway... (And it's not like it's actually used
for authentication, in which case it would of course be a problem).
