To make a long story short, this was a bug, and it only occurred when using BerkeleyDB 4.6. Fixed now in CVS.

Lastly, you want to use db4 4.6, right? I'd forget about this for the time being if I were you. Getting OL 2.4.x working correctly is far more important than subjectively choosing a db4 version. Patched 4.2.52 works fine for now, I'm sure Buchan will get around to incorporating 4.6 as soon as possible.
Example:
# /etc/init.d/ldap stop # rm -rf /var/lib/openldap-data/* # rm -rf /etc/openldap/slapd.d && mkdir /etc/openldap/slapd.d
...(modify slapd.conf)...
# slaptest -f /etc/openldap/slapd.conf -F /etc/openldap/slapd.d
Seg Faults every time. I even get a seg fault if I simply run the following:
# slaptest -f /etc/openldap/slapd.conf
No problem with the above approach.

Well, there you go.
