Emmanuel Lecharny resolved DIRSERVER-849.
-----------------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

The subschemasubentry management has been completely reviewed last year.

The mentionned problem should not occur anymore, as the way we now handling schema modification is :
- clone the entire schema
- apply the modifications
- check if the cloned schema is consistent
  - if not, ditch the cloned schema, and keep the previous one, then produce an error message
  - otherwise swap the old schema out and replace it with the new schema.

> Sometimes a modify operation may add or remove multiple schema entities.  If one is bad yet others are not the modification for the bad entity is rejected while others are not.  This failure of one entity should cause the entire operation to rollback to preserve atomicity of the modify operation on the schema subentry.
