I tried implementing a check for Cft_Misc that considers only siblings
of the same distinguished naming attribute:
ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/ondrej-kuznik-20120309-ITS-6987.patch

During an IRC conversation in January you suggested not renumbering
Cft_Misc entries at all, like the patch below. Such a change might
however affect other overlays since captive backends seem to be regarded
as Cft_Misc entries too, based on my tests with it:
ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/ondrej-kuznik-20120309-ITS-6987-no-renumbering.patch
