The slapcat man page says in the Limitations section:

Given that back-ldbm has been deleted for 2.4, I guess we can just delete this sentence.
It could produce garbage data with back-ldif, and with some foreign database module. I think it should say it's safe with bdb (and null). Could copy it to the slapd-bdb(5) too. (I don't suggest to make slapcat(8) refer the user to that, since there is only one example anyway.)
Obviously hdb too. Would it produce garbage on 2.4?
