Sorry about the delay, the details are as follows (see below).

The build was as follows:
setenv LIBS "-pthread -lposix4";
env CPPFLAGS="-I/path/to/db2/include" LDFLAGS="-L/path/to/db2/lib" \
configure --with-threads=lwp --prefix=/path/to/openldap
--with-ldbm-api=db2;

I'm using the LDBM backend with Sleepycat's DB2 DBMS. I'm not using any
other tools/libraries not suplied with the openldap release.

ldapsearch caused te seg fault, the slpad daemon continued to work
perfectly -- and accepted non-verbose searches. If you are referring to
the system log files then I don't have access to them (I can find any
slapd specific log files) and I wouldn't know
where to start with the core dump.
