This error probably comes from a version mismatch between slapd and libldap.

Probably the "kolab" objectClass was not known at this time. But it
should as the kolab.schema was included before the upgrade.

To pkg-openldap people: Do you have any idea?

Regarding #601410, I don't know of any proper solution: If slapd is
upgraded before kolabd (which is probably the case), rootDSE will be
present. So this bug should probably be solved on the slapd side.
