This highlights some other issues lurking in here - back-monitor 
basically doesn't deal with dynamic configuration well at all. It 
assumes that all databases and overlays have been fully configured by 
the time it starts - an assumption that was valid for old-style 
slapd.conf use, but not with back-config.

The monitor_subsys_database_init_one() function probably needs to be 
split into separate pieces so that database and overlay info can be set 
up and removed incrementally.
