Hi Michael and thanks for all the digging. If I understand correctly
there are two issues here:

1. The slapd crash due to the caseExactMatch/caseExactIA5Match typo, for
which you submitted a fix upstream [1].

2. The need to "start ; stop ; restart" the slapd service in order to
avoid the "invalid per syntax" errors.

What I suggest is to:

A. Let's wait for upstream to comment on or pickup your patch. We'll
then be able to cherry-pick the fix from the upstream repository. This
makes things easier to manage and give us more confidence on the
correctness on the patch (could be obvious for a ldap/autofs expert, I
am not.)

B. File a separate bug for the "start ; stop ; restart" thing, which
appears to be unrelated. If you do so, please make it clear it's a
Bionic -> Focal regression. Having a minimal steps to reproduce the
issue from a fresh Focal install would be the best.

What do you think?
