Sorry, wrong context, I was referring to the other patch for running
db_recover. And the comment was flawed anyway to just forget about it.

I think I can upload a patch for changing LDBM to BDB up to monday. I
committed already that db_recover thingy but I am not sure if I want to
release it like it is. I think we should at least check if another slapd
is running before running db_recover.
