Fixed.

In the past the tools didn't use threads and didn't share as much code
with slapd. As such, it seems a lot of subsystems really didn't need to
be set up for tool mode. I guess things have changed since we now use
Operation structures everywhere.
Tools like slappasswd don't even read the slapd config. That means you
can't use slappasswd with a dynamically loaded password-hash module. So
yes, some of this structuring needs to be revisited.
