I tried it and it worked. So compared the test configuration and my
configuration. After a lot of test I found that the relevant difference was,
that I had a 

 overlay syncprov 

before my database definition. After removing this from the global context,
everything works!

The fact that the syncprov overlay must not be specified outside a database
definition is not clear from the docs (when I first started with syncprov, I
actualy thought it needs to be before the database definition, which is, as
I know now, wrong).

I will add an item to the Its for an remark in the docs.
