This is absolutely not an acceptable fix for this bug. A 'sleep' only

find out why the parent slapd process is again exiting before it's ready
to listen for connections - this is a regression, for a bug that was very
specifically supposed to have been fixed upstream in 2.4.28. See bug
# 589915 for the history.
The source files that were being patched for this haven't changed upstream
since 2.4.28, so I'm not sure what will have gone wrong.
I suggest reading followup #2 in
<http://www.openldap.org/its/index.cgi/?findid=6848>, the upstream ITS
dealing with this. It is specifically noted that on a heavily loaded
system, this can still occur.
The real solution is to switch to back-mdb from back-bdb/hdb, which doesn't
have the heavy startup load that BDB based backends do.
