Commenting preceeding config line breaks attributetype config declaration (ITS#3237)

Commenting the line immediately preceeding a attributetype declaration in the
config file results in an error when starting slapd which says that the
attribute does not exist.

The message is:

AttributeType not found: "attributename"

The line number referenced is that which declares the objectclass which uses
the attribute.

Placing a blank line into the config before the "attributename' line is a
workaround.

I know this is an old version, but RH has this habit of not updating version
numbers
past their initial OS release so it may not be as old as it looks.  Meanwhile, I
don't see the error reported in the bug tracking system and figured that perhaps
not that many people are defining their own attributes so you may not have
heard.
