Yes. And OpenLDAP even announces it in the subschema without implementing it (see also ITS#5608). :-(

An ITS which should be closed.

An implementation can either publish the attribute description as specified (possibly with some additional names, extensions) or not. The description is otherwise immutable (per X.501).

Note that publication of a schema description only indicates that the implementation is aware of the description. It does not necessarily mean that the server implements any particular functionality (other than the ability to publish schema descriptions).
