slapd 2.1.x is a dead end as far as Debian is concerned because of
problems like this one. There are a number of bug reports about slapd
locking up, using 100% CPU, etc. - see http://bugs.debian.org/255276
for example. 

Most of the time running db4.2_recover in the database directory seems
to help but most of the time the problem will reappear. 

I suggest upgrading to 2.2.23-1 from unstable ASAP. That's the upstream
version that will ship with sarge.

Greetings

        Torsten
