This looks like an error from the backend.  You may be running out of space. 
What does 'df' say?  Do you have a filesize limit in /etc/security/limits.conf? 
Do your filesystems support files > 2GB?  (Well, I suppose the last question
doesn't matter since AFAIK gdbm doesn't support files > 2GB.)

BTW I recommend RawHide OpenLDAP 2.0.19-1.  Among other improvements, it's
multithreaded, so one process can't lock up the directory.
