I don't understand this. It says in the spec "There is an optional flag
which can be set to "DISABLE NEW REFERENCES" which results in the entry
being dropped when the last reference to the entry has been removed"

The entry is fully visible to anybody currently using it and remains
valid forever and fully functional as long as somebody has a reference
to it.
