slapd ends up hanging indefinitely. This happened with 8 replicas connected to the server, where for four of those replicas, the connection between the master and the replica wouldn't connect (but you could go from the replica to the master) at some point after the initial connection was made.

Patch to HEAD from Howard is committed.
