OpenLDAP's ldapdelete was modified to be able to remove a subentry
related to replication that was used at some point within syncrepl.
However, that code erroneously assumed that the database being deleted
always supported subentries, which wasn't true even for OpenLDAP itself.
 It was fixed as ITS#5293 <http://www.openldap.org/its?findid=5293> in
2.4.8, but it hasn't been fixed in the 2.3 series.
