 This isuue is like thousand years old. And it concerns every available 
 backend, not just ldap. The same thing is with nss_winbind, for example. 
 Furthermore, [success=return] is the default status/action pair. Plus, 
 first I saw this issue on like 7.x. So I can say - 7.x and 8.x are 
 affected too.
 
 And I can say, this leads up to even more weird situation. Imagine 
 OpenLDAP server running on a FreeBSD. After successful test we configure 
 the same FreeBSD as LDAP client - from now on slapd will stuck on start, 
 as it waits for itself.
