Argh, I figured out this problem was self-inflicted. I used too old a
revision of the dse.ldif file as the basis for my migration. Updating
to a newer revision (that included references to the missing backend)
solved the problem.
Thanks for the help and sorry to have wasted time with this.

Subject: Migrating from 1.0.2 to 1.1, not all databases migrated
I'm working on migrating our Fedora DS 1.0.2 server to
FedoraDS 1.1. I did a same platform migration on test box by
installing the FedoraDS 1.1 binaries, taring up
/opt/fedora-ds from one of our old FedoraDS boxes and then
using migrate-ds-admin.pl to migrate the instance. While
NetscapeRoot and UserRoot were migrated correctly, the
mgration script skipped over our custom database entirely.
Now I can always export to LDIF and migrate this database
that way, I was hoping to do a direct binary migration to
minimize downtime. Are UserRoot and NetscapeRoot the only
databases supported, or is it likely that something was
misconfigured with my test?
Any advice is appreciated,
