Do use v >= 2.2.6.

It's relatively painless; yes, you'll have to slapcat/slapadd (see
Quanah's posting). One of the things you might find, is that the ACL
parsing is much stricter and some of your 2.1.x ACLs might not work any
more. Fortunately, it should be easy to see why the ones that don't work
don't, and to adapt them.
