Ok stuff. Updating OL will likely not help in this particular case.

Been watching the thread for a couple or three of revs, but nowhere did 
anyone match my experience with the same empirical experience.

In my case(s) it was caused by a corrupt (patched) 4.2.52 changelog DB. 
Deleting the log after a stop slapd then restarting (so that the DB 
automatically got rebuilt) fixed it. Runnings a (Buchan-adapted) 
db_recover -c had had no effect at any stage.

Why the DB should have got corrupt in the first case, I can only 
surmise. DB_CONFIG in that directory was reasonable, but consumers *did* 
disappear for periods, due to system upgrade reboots before this occurred.

Systems were RHEL5 and FC6, OL versions were 2.3.37 and 2.3.38.
