Syncrepl REFRESH_PRESENT leads to glue nodes on branch nodes in the tree on the consumer

Hi. Using 2.4.23, and bdb 4.2.52.

I have two nodes, A and B. When I start up the nodes (in either order), B performs a REFRESH_PRESENT phase. In this phase, it executes syncrepl_del_nonpresent(). This identifies a number of nodes that it thinks need to be deleted, and deletes them. Since many of the nodes are non-leaf nodes, instead of deleting them it replaces them with glue nodes.

My question is: should I post this as a bug for tracking purposes? What information exactly should I post as a followup to this email so that someone can help me with this issue? I can provide slapcat output for both nodes, and slapd.conf files for both nodes. Where should I post these?
