With a global overlay set, slapd is crashing in servers/slapd/backover.c at line 703, with a SEGV.

Seems someone else has seen the same issue and put an asset in there:

(703) BackendDB *be = op->o_bd, db; slap_callback cb = {NULL, over_back_response, NULL, NULL}, **sc; int rc = SLAP_CB_CONTINUE;

/* FIXME: used to happen for instance during abandon * when global overlays are used... */ assert( op->o_bd != NULL );

However, the assert is after the first use of op->o_bd, so slapd has already crashed!

The overlay I was using globally was overlay memberof memberof-refint true

After reading the comment above the assert, I checked my config and I am indeed using a global overlay. When I put it into each database block instead, everything works ok. I guess there is a more fundamental issue with global overlays and this assert isn't actually catching the error.

I can quickly replicate the problem, so if you need me to look at anything specific, let me know.

Maybe I've missed something that says global overlays are bad; but if so, then I'd expect slapd to complain about it in the messages....
