I think I found an example with standard object classes. The problem
seems to be the order of the inherited STRUCTURAL object classes. (Tests
done with HEAD.)

Import this entry and try to remove 'labeledURIObject' from it:

dn: ou=oc-mod-test,ou=Testing,dc=stroeder,dc=de
objectClass: OpenLDAPou
objectClass: organizationalUnit
objectClass: labeledURIObject
ou: oc-mod-test


If you reverse the order of the STRUCTURAL object classes or remove
'organizationalUnit' and let slapd re-add it works.

objectClass: organizationalUnit
objectClass: OpenLDAPou
