slurpd and syncrepl will coexist throughout 2.3 at least.  However, since
2.3 is supposed to be heavily back-config oridented, slurpd has to be
back-config enabled to allow, say, adding replicas without stopping slapd;
otherwise, this would defeat back-config's purpose.  Having slurpd builtin
into slapd would really make things easier.
