Functions in servers/slapd/back-bdb/init.c dereference their ConfigReply *
arguments without testing that they are non-NULL first, which causes seg.
faults.  I have only seen this happen when I tried to slapcat a database that
hadn't had its directory created or some other stupidity, but anyhow...   

I don't include my patch to this, as it is probably easier to fix it again in
your source than to apply a patch.
