You appear to be using back-hdb.

Yes.

My guess is that if this can fail, e.g. because entries are being sync'ed out of order, the DN does not get fixed. If this is the case (I couldn't inspect code deep enough to make sure), I'd expect that the DN get fixed anyway, though, because missing entries should exist as "glue" objects.

yes. But if you plan to use slapcat as a backup mechanism, then it's still a problem.

Sounds like a low priority issue at best. Taking backups of a replica while it is initializing is pointless, just take a backup of the provider instead.
