I think I've seen something similar recently: I started a master, a slave
and slurpd simultaneously; the I added an entire database via ldapadd (few
hundreds of entries); the master was populated correctly, and slurpd moved
the master's replog into its, but the slave didn't receive anything.  As
soon as I noticed it (few minutes later), I restarted everything, and the
replication occurred instantaneously.  I was using HEAD with bdb on both
servers, so it's not that different from 2.2.11.  I couldn't reproduce it,
so I really have no clue.   Since I was trying to quickly improvise
something totally unrelated (playing with Samba 3 as BDC acting on a
couple of slave/master DSA), I'm not even sure I did everything correctly
from the beginning.  I'll keep my eyes open to see if anything similar
occurs.

Can you suggest guidelines (at least hints) to modify test006 in order to
try to induce your problem?
