Can you reproduce this issue with the latest 2.3 code?  It is more 
likely that these types of issues are investigated if they occur in 2.3; 
if a common solution is found, it will be backported to 2.2.  2.2 only 
problems will inevitably get less attention.

I don't see the point in making this change.  This way you guarantee 
that slapcat will try to lookup no longer existing or past last entries.
