Should SID/RID be decimal (0-999) as in parsing and the rest of the syncrepl code, or hexadecimal (0-FFF) as in code generating CSN values? I understand the point is (almost) moot, but we'd get there as soon as someone starts using

I'm fixing the code so that it consistently uses hex server IDs, please holler if using decimals is preferred.

The SID in the CSN has always been hex (but usually zero). The RID is not part of the CSN and has always been decimal. Since the RID only needs to be unique within a particular slapd instance, there's no real problem there.
