You did the right thing.  'slapd_shutdown' should not be declared at all
in proto-slap.h.  It is static in daemon.c, and does not appear to be used
anywhere else.  I will commit a fix (this appears to be relavent only to 1.2).
Apparently most compilers ignore this.  I'm not sure if this is even illegal
C.
