[ldapext] syntax or matching rule flaw in RFC 3045

We were looking at implementing this and someone noticed that the syntax
for the attributes is Directory String (1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15)
while the EQUALITY rule is caseExactIA5Match 
(1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.109.114.1).

I assume the author was at one point using the IA5 String syntax and
changed to Directory String but forgot to change the EQUALITY rule (the
author doesn't work at Novell anymore or I'd ask him). We should
probably update the RFC. Do other vendors who have implemented this use
a caseExactMatch (2.5.13.5) for the EQUALITY?

Thanks,

Jim
