Section Appendix A.2 says:

      PBKDF2-PRFs ALGORITHM-IDENTIFIER ::= {
        {NULL IDENTIFIED BY id-hmacWithSHA1},
        {NULL IDENTIFIED BY id-hmacWithSHA224},
        {NULL IDENTIFIED BY id-hmacWithSHA256},
        {NULL IDENTIFIED BY id-hmacWithSHA384},
        {NULL IDENTIFIED BY id-hmacWithSHA512},
        {NULL IDENTIFIED BY id-hmacWithSHA512-224},
        {NULL IDENTIFIED BY id-hmacWithSHA512-256},
        ...
      }

It should say:

      PBKDF2-PRFs ALGORITHM-IDENTIFIER ::= {
        {NULL IDENTIFIED BY id-hmacWithSHA1}        |
        {NULL IDENTIFIED BY id-hmacWithSHA224}      |
        {NULL IDENTIFIED BY id-hmacWithSHA256}      |
        {NULL IDENTIFIED BY id-hmacWithSHA384}      |
        {NULL IDENTIFIED BY id-hmacWithSHA512}      |
        {NULL IDENTIFIED BY id-hmacWithSHA512-224}  |
        {NULL IDENTIFIED BY id-hmacWithSHA512-256},
        ...
      }

Notes:

For the ASN.1 Module to compile properly, six commas need to be replaced with "|" in the definition of PBKDF2-PRFs.
Errata 5808 targets the complete ASN.1 module, here this is just an extract copied in PBKDF2 description.
