Howard,

I just compiled the latest CVS and tried to use the description instead
of the numeric OIDs. Unfortuantely same result:

stran@info-ldap-001:/etc/openldap_REL_ENG_2_3/schema$ ldapmodify -vv -x
-W -D "cn=manager,dc=example,dc=com"
ldap_initialize( <DEFAULT> )
Enter LDAP Password: 
dn: cn=PsynchPwd,ou=Policies,dc=example,dc=com
changetype: modify
replace: pwdAttribute
pwdAttribute: userPassword

replace pwdAttribute:
        userPassword
modifying entry "cn=PsynchPwd,ou=Policies,dc=example,dc=com"
modify complete
ldap_modify: Invalid syntax (21)
        additional info: pwdAttribute: value #0 invalid per syntax
