My biggest question would be why these 2 attributes are treated differently - i.e. are userpassword and pwdhistory different types or something to trigger different behaviour, or does slapcat just hardcode userpassword as an attribute to base64 hash, etc?
slapcat and ldapsearch (via liblutil/ldif.c) hardcode that userPassword is base64-encoded. So are '<attribute>;binary', attribute values which contain 8-bit characters, and some other special cases.
