I could not reproduce it.  Probably, the best way to proceed is:

1) write down the objectClass values before and after the attempted 
modifications
2) classify them as ABSTRACT, STRUCTURAL, AUXILIARY
3) indicate any inheritance relationship
4) send the outcome of (2) and (3) after mangling the objectClass names 
as required.

This should allow you (and others) to try to reproduce the issue without 
the need to disclose your info.
