          Issue ID: 9870
           Summary: Remove optional overlay syntax
           Product: OpenLDAP
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Keywords: needs_review
          Severity: normal
          Priority: ---
         Component: slapd
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
  Target Milestone: ---

While the module/overlay support was really young, an unreleased version of
OpenLDAP supported 'optional overlays' that could fail start up without that
being treated as a fatal error.

This was later disabled, never documented and nowadays it can't work anyway,
but the configuration option is still there in config_overlay() honouring
overlay names starting with the '-' character as an alias. A patch to remove
that leftover is coming.
