linkdn is totally different from aliases. The -x linkdn option just
sets a krbObjectReferences attribute on a standalone principal object.
This attribute has no particular semantics to the KDC or kadmind; it
might have meaning to an external LDAP administration tool (such as
eDirectory, which our LDAP support originally came from).
