Aha, I hadn't caught that. I remember slapmodify (or the companion LDIF api?) is buggy and had the distinct impression that this is well known. I may have been thinking of contrib:ucn rather than contrib:vc. <grepping...> a note from hyc @ irc: "ITSs against it [usn] should be discarded since we already know it's not meant to be used".

The usn overlay was committed as-is but was not completed; at the time of writing we had no complete spec for usn behavior.
