Importing packets with protect oplogs into a nonpreserving replica fails with error: multitool: Error: Incompatible versions of ClearCase software and/or databases

Symptom

When importing packets containing "protect" oplogs from a preserving replica into a non-preserving replica, the following error occurs:

multitool: Error: Incompatible versions of ClearCase software and/or databases: "\TESTVOB_CCVAL_REPL".

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a new VOB on the local system
   C:\>cleartool mkvob -tag \TESTVOB_CCVAL -nc %COMPUTERNAME%\views\TESTVOB_CCVAL.vbs
   
2. Create a new replica of that VOB. Can also be on the local system for this test.
   C:\>multitool mkreplica -export -workdir C:\temp\WDIR -nc -out %TEMP%\mkreplica_TESTVOB_CCVAL %COMPUTERNAME%:replica@\TESTVOB_CCVAL
   
3. Import that replica as a non-preserving replica.
   C:\>multitool mkreplica -import -workdir C:\temp\WDIR  -tag \TESTVOB_CCVAL_REPL -vob  \\%COMPUTERNAME%\Views\TESTVOB_CCVAL_REPL.vbs -npreserve -nc -vreplica replica C:\TEMP\mkreplica_TESTVOB_CCVAL
   
4. Create ANYTHING in the first copy of the VOB.
   
   For example:
   C:\>cleartool mklbtype -nc TESTLABEL@\TESTVOB_CCVAL
   
5. Reprotect the item created above.
   C:\>cleartool protect -chown ww005\csaarch lbtype:TESTLABEL@\TESTVOB_CCVAL
   
6. Run a syncreplica -export to create a new update packet with the changes.
   C:\>multitool sync -export -nc -out %TEMP%\Sync-TESTVOB_CCVAL replica:replica@\TESTVOB_CCVAL
   
7. Run a syncreplica -import to import the above update packet.
   C:\>multitool sync -import -nc -invob  \TESTVOB_CCVAL_REPL %TEMP%\Sync-TESTVOB_CCVAL
   
   Observe the failure reported during the import:
   multitool: Error: Incompatible versions of ClearCase software and/or databases: "\TESTVOB_CCVAL_REPL".
   multitool: Error: Unable to replay oplog entry 3: incompatible versions of ClearCase software and/or databases.
