I'm a bit surprised that neither the slapd parser nor slaptest caught it. Ah, well.
If you used -d config with slap* from OpenLDAP 2.3, you would have gotten
slapd.conf: line 11: <overlay> extra cruft after <overlay> ignored.
If you used OpenLDAP 2.4, you would have gotten an error
slapd.conf: line 11: <overlay> extra cruft after <overlay>. slaptest: bad configuration file!
since 2.4 is much less forgiving about unrecognized statements in slapd.conf. Strengthening those checks was deferred to 2.4 to avoid changing the traditionally forgiving behavior many people seem to appreciate at mid-life of 2.3.
