Unable to upgrade 3.1 to 3.5.13. Validation fails on userSearchFilter and groupSearchFilter in atlassian-user.xml

Trying to upgrade Confluence 3.1 to 3.513 in our test environment as pre-cursor to upgrading to 4.2

Getting this exception:

Just hit this myself - com.atlassian.confluence.user.migration.LdapRepositoryConfigurationMigrator#extractObjectClass requires that the filter be objectClass with a capital C.

And there's half an hour I'll never get back.
