The error occurs in a very generic place, with very little significant 
indications of failure.  It appears that the passwrod chage succeeded, 
but the resulting dynamically generated entry is corrupted.

Is the column of the table containing the userPassword large enough to 
hold this value?

Apparently, the modification succeeded.

Apparently, the modified value of userPassword was correctly retrieved

It may be that back-sql is for some reason letting an attribute with no 
values slip thru.  You should intercept that assertion by running a 
non-stripped version of slapd under gdb and letting it fail.  Then, 
print the value of a->a_desc->ad_cname and any other useful information 
that can be found about that attribute (e.g. the schema of the table 
that's containing it, the row in ldap_attr_mappings that's taking care 
of its handling (including the stored procedures that are called, if 
any).  Info about the RDBMS may be of help.
