Assuming I've described the symptoms clearly enough (and I likely

kind of trouble that can occur with "casual" schema file modification?
One should never "casually" modify schema definitions. back-bdb now
stores the normalized attributes in the database, rather than
normalizing repeatedly upon reading the database. If you change the case
of schema definitions in between storing and reading an entry, and
change the case of the attribute's canonical name, the copy in the
database will no longer match the schema definition in memory.
