I haven't done a thorough review of the code, but from what I have
seen and what I understand of how it works there should be zero impact
on stability.
It just makes some extra functionality available via the keywords
"plugin" and "pluginlog" in slapd.conf.
If you don't compile in SLAPI support, those keywords are quietly
ignored.  If you do, then those keywords give access to the extra
functionality. 
Certainly *using* this functionality _could_ upset stability.  But
just having it compiled in shouldn't.

Thanks,
