For some reason, slapadd is aborting at 65545 transactions. I vaguely
remember we ran into this once before, but have no idea what the details
were. RE22 seems to be just fine.

I did a quick diff of RE_22 and the BDB 4.3 patches I had downloaded and found that idl.c's changes never made it into RE_22. Passed this info on to Howard.

Yep, followed some bad advice from the BDB 4.3 Upgrade documentation.
 http://www.sleepycat.com/docs/ref/upgrade.4.3/cput.html

The cursor->c_put(,,DB_CURRENT) doesn't appear to overwrite data elements as documented.

Reverted the bad patch in HEAD and all is well. Since the patch never went into RE22 there was no problem there.
