The thread running ldap_pvt_thread_pool_destroy and the one that ran the index task (which was immediately finished after receiving the shutdown signal) are both waiting for the pool->ltp_cond to be signalled.

Under normal conditions (slapd is not shutting down) the signal would have been sent by ldap_pvt_thread_pool_resume(), called by the thread that handled the second modify request. But there is an explicit check for pool->ltp_finishing in ldap_pvt_thread_pool_resume(). When pool->ltp_finishing is set this signal is not send.

The check for pool->ltp_finishing has been introduced with r1.81 of tpool.c. I am unsure what this was supposed to fix the log message is just: "In pool_resume don't touch the condvar if the pool is tearing down."

This patch solves the problem for me, so I am unsure if it'll break other things:
