039 - what do you think about renaming "sysdb_ctx_list *ctx_list" as
well? Otherwise ACK.

I think the way the patches are split is wrong -- after you apply 40,
you can't even *compile* the code. If we ever wanted to cherry-pick any
of the changes to some other branch, it would be all-or-nothing.

I think the split should either be per-function, or, if you think that's
too many patches perhaps per group of functions ("all functions that
handle users", "all functions that handle groups" etc.).

We already did a huge sysdb API rewrite once, in 1.3, and the patches
were per-function back then -- check out
d86fc9163127f7c5bd0c3af950fcddff7911867f and earlier.

Considering that it may be a lot of work to regroup the patches, I think
it may be even better to have squash 40-43 and 44-46 together, but a
patch that does not compile seems bad to me.

After applying the patches (there were two minor conflicts), "make
check" and a simple smoke test passed. I didn't review the patches
completely yet.
