Well, considering that no one has reported any such problem during the
whole time releases 2.3.6-2.3.27 were published, it's no surprise that
there has been no fix yet.
There's not enough information here to reproduce the bug. What backend
are you using, what other entries are in the database? In particular,
does "uid=test,ou=Users,dc=example,dc=com" exist? You should provide a
sample slapd.conf and minimal LDIF needed to reproduce the error.
