+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #720059 +++

Description of problem:
If I have an object with RDN "cn=foo" and I add a second object with RDN "cn=%foo" ns-slapd segfaults.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
389 ds-base 1.2.8.3 - Installed from EPEL repo.
Centos 5.4


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure an standalone 389 Directory server with 389-test as rootdn.
2. Try to add the following entries:

dn: ou=SUDOers,ou=Groups,dc=389-test
ou: SUDOers
objectClass: top
objectClass: organizationalUnit

dn: cn=segu,ou=Groups,dc=389-test
gidNumber: 1100
objectClass: top
objectClass: groupofuniquenames
objectClass: posixgroup
cn: segu

dn: cn=%segu,ou=SUDOers,ou=Groups,dc=389-test
objectClass: top
objectClass: sudoRole
cn: %segu
sudoUser: %segu
sudoHost: ALL
sudoCommand: /usr/bin/passwd root
sudoCommand: /usr/sbin/useradd
sudoCommand: /usr/bin/passwd
sudoCommand: /usr/bin/chage
sudoCommand: /usr/sbin/userdel
sudoCommand: /sbin/pam_tally2
sudoOption: !authenticate


I tried renaming the object to %bar and works.

    Branch: master
    Fix Description: The code was using PR_snprintf to copy the RDN to the
    buffer used to store the value in the entryrdn index.  If there was
    a % in the value, the PR_snprintf was interpreting the next char as a
    formatting directive.  But since we don't pass any varargs arguments,
    the formatting directive was using random garbage on the stack, which
    can lead to crashes or missing entries or other undefined behavior.
    The fix is to use PL_strncpyz which will just copy the string up to
    the correct buffer size and will make sure the string is properly
    null terminated.
    You can use a simple C program to illustrate this problem:
    
    int
    main(int argc, char *argv[])
    {
        char buf[10];
        argv++;
        for (; *argv; ++argv) {
            PR_snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), *argv);
            printf("buf is [%s]\n", buf);
        }
    
        return 0;
    }
    gcc -o testit testit.c -lnspr4
    Then pass in values like %d %100s %100.100s and so on.  You will either
    get crashes or random output.
