Error 32 when I try with quotes, same as when I add escaping with backslash. So export/import it is.

Thanks for the suggestions, guys!

This works for me as well. However, when added with (what I assume to be) proper escaping in the first place like in this case, the entries also appear with visible escaping when browsing the directory. The problematic entries don't. 

I also can't add more entries of the latter type, as the server responds with 34 - syntax error, just like when attempting to delete the ones that are already there. In any case, I guess I'll just go for the big hammer, re-import and be done with it :)
did you try with quotes:
ldapmodify .....
dn: ou="my<problematic>entry",suffix
changetype: delete

if that doesn't work, I'm afraid export/import is the last resort
