Well, sorry for not providing more details, I was going to investigate 
it a little bit more but I had to leave.  The crash to me occurs in 
syncprov_done_ctrl(), as indicated in ITS#5437.  What happens is that 
syncprov_done_ctrl() with an invalid cookie (unset; clearing it in 
syncprov_search_response(), as suggested in ITS#5437 leads to the 
behavior I described (writes to consumers are simply ignored, don't 
persist in the consumers and are not replicated).  To reproduce, add 
something to a consumer close to the end of test050, before killing the 
servers, and wait a little bit to let things proceed to the crash.
