slurpd is fully supported in 2.3, and I believe there's no plan to drop
it in 2.4.  It's not developed further, but fully supported and
functional.

Replication can be configured using back-config for the slapd side;
slurpd is not able to read back-config files, though.  If you intend to
use slurpd you need to have a slapd.conf around that is consistent with
the back-config tree, and you should not modify replication-related
configuration via back-config, unless you consistently update slapd.conf
as well and take care of restarting slurpd.

Hope this answers your questions.
