You are not "adding" objectclass to the entry, you are replacing it and
along the way adding the value "WidNetTos" to the list of objectClasses
the entry already has.  You need to use the following:

dn: uid=account,ou=people,dc=mydomain,dc=com
changetype: modify
replace: objectclass
objectclass: Existing_oc_1
objectclass: Existing_oc_2
objectclass: ...
objectclass: WidNetToS
add: abc
abc: 500
add: def
def: 500

Where "Existing_oc_1, Existing_oc_2, and ..." are the objectclasses the
entry already has.
