After you change the index to unique, and if you have the ability to do so, you might check to see if you can import the changes into another system. I once had a def that could not be imported because it indicated that the base forms had a conflict. The problem was more complex than this, but the bottom line was that the overlay I was trying to import did not like that the base forms were different on the two systems.
Also, I wonder if the overlay will contain the index information, given that you added it to the base. If it is not in the overlay, you will probably have to make the change to the base form on the other systems by hand. Let us know what you find out.
