Thank You, this works.  But I think hashes are more distinct
than modify chains...  Is this conversion a wrong idea?

class Hash
	def to_ldapmodify
	        tmp = []
	        self.each_key { |attr|
			next   if attr == 'dn'
	                values = self[attr].to_a
	                mod    = LDAP::LDAP_MOD_ADD
	                mod   |= LDAP::LDAP_MOD_BVALUES if values.find { |e| e =~ /\000/ }
	                tmp   << LDAP.mod(mod, attr, values)
	        }
	        return tmp
	end
end
