Right, it shouldn't matter, since either it is equal to what -w would 
generate, or -w would overwrite it with the correct value anyway.  The 
only case I see is if the last operation was a delete, then the 
contextCSN on the provider would be greater than what a slapadd -w would 
generate.

In fact, I could easily reproduce the behavior you pointed out.
