Also: I'm running a 2.4 mdb file with 2.5, not large, but reading it with slapcat and/or an active slapd seems to work. (Only until I hit an impasse, I guess.)

TL;DR: - DB reload is not necessary if you don't use the new back-mdb options. - In release 2.5.7 slapcat will be able to dump 2.4 MDB files without prior start of slapd.
Thanks for sorting this out, Michael.
I'd then suggest to just wait for the 2.5.7 release to come out, and then we can provide OpenLDAP 2.5 as normal update to OpenLDAP 2.4.
FWIW: OpenLDAP 2.5.7 was released yesterday: https://lists.openldap.org/hyperkitty/list/openldap-announce@openldap.org/me... Ciao, Michael.
