Issue ID: 10250
           Summary: syncrepl_diff_entry assumes attributes come in the
                    same order
           Product: OpenLDAP
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Keywords: needs_review
          Severity: normal
          Priority: ---
         Component: slapd
          Assignee: bugs@openldap.org
          Reporter: ondra@mistotebe.net
  Target Milestone: ---
When trying to diff an entry, syncrepl_diff_entry explicitly assumes attribute
come in the same order. That's not always the case and could cause it to report
a spurious rewrite of the attribute.
Normally this is ok, unless the rewrite itself (not) occurring has other
side-effects, when it could cause issues. (e.g. a DB with memberof
inconsistencies being mysteriously repaired in some scenarios, which is how it
was found).
