First of all you should upgrade, preferrable to the latest 2.4 release. 
    There have been a lot of syncrepl fixes since this version.

But your config design is likely to not function, as only one syncrepl 
consumer can reliably be configured within a glued set of databases to 
replicate from the same consumer.

You should instead configure syncrepl on the glue suffix with a simple 
filter that matches all you replicate (or just leave it out and use the 
default).  Configure ACLs on the master that gives each consumer access 
to only those entries it should receive.
