slapd starts without a warning and can serve requests.

That's not the example you gave in last message.

The error message should be more helpful: If you want minlen that big, you have to set maxlen first.

Except, this can still break cn=config replication: Either setting this configuration or reverting to the old one will not work. I don't know if cn=config supports delaying this check until the entire new entry is available, and reverting if the check fails?
