Within the 2.3 series the last release was 2.3.43! There were numerous
syncrepl-related fixes since 2.3.11.

File CHANGES in OPENLDAP_REL_ENG_2_3 lists:

OpenLDAP 2.3.25 Release (2006/08/01)
[..]
     Fixed slapd syncrepl contextCSN issue (ITS#4622)
[..]

So you should definitely upgrade! I'd strongly recommend upgrade to
2.4.16 since the 2.3. series is no longer maintained. slapcat/slapadd is
needed since the DB format changed.

Note that there are also patches for the BDB releases.

Ciao, Michael.
