Public bug reported:

Mahara 1.8, Moodle 2.5

Hi Everyone,
This is really a Mahoodle bug, maybe.

Scenario someone logs into Mahara via LDAP, an account is created if the user is authenticated.
Same user logs into Moodle later on, then SSO's to Mahara - another account is created with a "1" after the student ID.

This only happens for some people, the other important thing to note is
that the authentication fallback order is:

LDAP
XMLRPC
Internal

The bug seems to be that Mahara isn't checking if a user has an existing
account regardless of which authentication methods was used to create
the account.

Thanks for your time.
Shane.
