Quanah,
Attached are the two new debug output files and below is what I
used to compile BDB for debug.

Here's the relevant info:
This locker is holding a write lock that the other threads are blocked
waiting on:

This thread is using both a reader transaction and a write transaction
(which is perfectly fine)

Thread 2366790512 is 0x8d125b70

In your gdb output we see that 0x914f8b70 is LWP 2306, waiting in a
search.
Thread 0x93fffb70 is LWP 1506, waiting in a delete.
Thread 0x8d125b70 is LWP 2457, completely idle.
I.e., the thread that owns the offending write lock is not executing
any operation at all. It's important to note that back-bdb only takes
write locks inside of a transaction, and transactions either commit or
abort. In either case, all of their locks are supposed to be released
at the end. It is impossible for slapd code to leak write locks like
this. (In fact, the slapd code itself can never lock an individual DB
page, as is being done here. Those locks can only be taken by the
actual BDB library code.) As such, it appears to be a bug in the BDB
library you're using.
Are you sure that OpenLDAP was built against the BDB library you've
built, as opposed to some version that was already installed on your
system?
