Section 4.2 says:
4.2. Matching Rule Definitions Nominated character strings in assertion and attribute values are prepared according to the string preparation algorithms [RFC4518] for LDAP when evaluating the following matching rules: numericStringMatch, numericStringSubstringsMatch, caseExactMatch, caseExactOrderingMatch, caseExactSubstringsMatch, caseExactIA5Match, caseIgnoreIA5Match, caseIgnoreIA5SubstringsMatch, caseIgnoreListMatch, caseIgnoreListSubstringsMatch, caseIgnoreMatch, caseIgnoreOrderingMatch, caseIgnoreSubstringsMatch, directoryStringFirstComponentMatch, telephoneNumberMatch, telephoneNumberSubstringsMatch and wordMatch.
It should say:
4.2. Matching Rule Definitions Nominated character strings in assertion and attribute values are prepared according to the string preparation algorithms [RFC4518] for LDAP when evaluating the following matching rules: numericStringMatch, numericStringOrderingMatch, numericStringSubstringsMatch, caseExactMatch, caseExactOrderingMatch, caseExactSubstringsMatch, caseExactIA5Match, caseIgnoreIA5Match, caseIgnoreIA5SubstringsMatch, caseIgnoreListMatch, caseIgnoreListSubstringsMatch, caseIgnoreMatch, caseIgnoreOrderingMatch, caseIgnoreSubstringsMatch, directoryStringFirstComponentMatch, telephoneNumberMatch, telephoneNumberSubstringsMatch and wordMatch.
Notes:
The 'numericStringOrderingMatch' matching rule should be in the list of Matching Rules that are prepared accordingly to RFC 4518.
In 4.2.23, a reference to the String Preparation algorithm is made :
"In preparing the attribute value and assertion value for comparison,
characters are not case folded in the Map preparation step, and only
numericString Insignificant Character Handling is applied in the
Insignificant Character Handling step."

Section 3.3.10 says:
subset = "baseobject" / "oneLevel" / "wholeSubtree"
It should say:
subset = "baseObject" / "oneLevel" / "wholeSubtree"
Notes:
The Enhanced Guide "subset" token SHOULD honor the case folding scheme for a search scope, as this refers to actual ASN.1 ENUMERATED / INTEGER components; see RFC 4511 Section 4.5.1 and ITU-T Rec. X.511 Clause 11.2.1 respectively.
Therefore, "baseobject" SHOULD be "baseObject".
