Note that the HDB backend is the one recommended upstream and the Debian
default.

Well, yeah, that system has been dist-upgraded from at least Etch.
IIRC it started at some time when BDB was still the default.

I wrote that -- according to our backups -- this happened already with
Lenny's slapd. But with Lenny it seemed to have happened less often
(which is why we noticed it only recently).

Personally, I would advise you to ask a question about this on openldap-techni...@openldap.org. I asked Howard about it, and he had a ready answer as to why you were seeing this, but I forget what it is. In any case, this is not a debian specific openldap bug.
