No.

There is little point in talking about the glue overlay since its 
functionality has been folded back into the main slapd code (i.e., where 
it was in 2.2). It no longer exists as a separate module. This change 
was announced in the 2.3.7 changelog; the current release is 2.3.11. If 
you're working with a release that still refers to the glue overlay you 
should upgrade.

The slapo-glue man page has been removed from the distribution. See the 
slapd.conf(5) man page instead, look up the "subordinate" keyword.
