 From what I've been able to gather, the problem appears only
to occur with the BerkeleyDB concurrent API is used.  I've
updated HEAD and OPENLDAP_REL_ENG_2 with changes which should
prevents its use.  I would be very interested to see if problems
still persist.

I, personally, do not believe the problem is specific to any
attribute as if we had such a bug it likely would appear not
only with Berkeley DB w/ CDB but with GDBM and Berkeley DB
w/o CDB.  I note also we have reports of problems occurring
with modrdn as well.  modrdn doesn't touch objectClass.
