Some more research after I sent my question (narrower search terms) found the following bug and fix:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=624442

The package I use is centos-ds-base-8.1.0-0.14.el5.centos.2

Does this mean that this is a bug in the package I have and I should just use different replication id's?
Or can I still somehow clear the tombstones?
You might be able to use db2ldif -r to dump the database along with the replication meta data, then edit the LDIF file to remove the bogus data, then ldif2db to reload your database from the LDIF file.

Thanks. This sounds like what I was after.

For now I just assigned new replica numbers to each server and it seems to work.
Is there any reason to risk the data in order to drop the old replica ID's or is it OK to ignore them and just leave them there?
