In wheezy and later, this became more severe: such filenames cause slapd/slaptest to read uninitialized memory and probably crash. I've proposed a fix for that on the upstream report.

In any case, upstream's response on this is that schema filenames should be alphanumeric only. The documentation will be updated, and we should probably add a check for non-alphanumeric filenames in our migration script.
