In principle, if it gets there the test passed, only slap_startup() 
fails, whatever the reason.  Retrying with -u will surely succeed, 
because slap_startup() wouldn't be invoked at all.  I changed the 
message to state so:

[masarati@ando tests]$ ../servers/slapd/slaptest -f testrun/slapd.1.conf
slap_startup failed (test would succeed using the -u switch)
[masarati@ando tests]$ ../servers/slapd/slaptest -f testrun/slapd.1.conf -u
config file testing succeeded
