maxsize is 84GB, but the actual DB will be < 26MB when it is finished being created. Is this because maxsize > total free disk space?

This is definitely not an OpenLDAP bug. Apparently some OSes block max allocation, even if blocking it is disabled. This particular server is running SLES11 SP1:

Linux mail 2.6.32.49-0.3-default #1 SMP 2011-12-02 11:28:04 +0100 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Something at the OS level is blocking the mdb memory allocation. This same issue does not occur on other SLES11 installations we have, so I'm somewhat at a loss to explain it.
