Yes, probably. Might I ask you to open a bug report at 
bugzilla.novell.com? So we can fix it and probably release an updated 
RPM.

Yes. The problematic thing is deleting complete objects (e.g. overlays, 
databases). Deleting single Attributes should work just fine and doesn't 
require -DSLAP_CONFIG_DELETE.

It'll probably just deny to execute the operations (e.g. when removing 
overlay entries from the frontend or config db). But I consider that 
better than crashing the server :).
