Interestingly enough, my results differed from yours. Also the results 
differed depending on whether I slapadd'd the bare LDIF, or an LDIF with all 
operational attributes included. But this is now fixed in git master. Given 
this and the typos in back-sql it appears we should scratch 2.4.27 and push a 
new release.
