         ^^^^^^
    I do not see a reason of using output argument here. You can use local
    variable result.

BTW
I would expect more reusable solution for ticket #1991 or do you want to add
the same snippet to other function?

In the function sysdb_error_to_errno ldb error LDB_ERR_NO_SUCH_OBJECT
is transformed to the ENOENT. Could you explain why it did not work?
