The standard kldap driver still uses the stash file to hold the master
key as far as I know.
you can use kdb5_dump to dump and change the passwords and load them
back with older releases. In 1.9 it should be possible to change keys
while keeping the database online by storing both the old and the new
master key in the new keytab format stash file.
Simo.
