hi Jonathan/Torsten/all,
i've been bitten by the same issue of db_recover leaving its __db.*
files only readable by root causing slapd to fail without any error
message when you try starting it. here's a patch to /etc/init.d/slapd
that fixes the issue. it may not be the best way of doing this but i
think it's the simplest.

owned by root
