I found the problem. I had this in slapd.conf

database bdb suffix "ou=foo,dc=example,dc=net" (...) syncrepl rid=317 searchbase="ou=foo,dc=example,dc=net" (...) database bdb suffix "dc=example,dc=net" (...) syncrepl rid=217 searchbase="dc=example,dc=net" (...) syncrepl rid=317 searchbase="ou=foo,dc=example,dc=net" (...)

Removing the duplicated syncrepl rid=317 fixed the problem. It would be nice if slapd could refuse to start in such conditions.
