Is there some kind of trick to get this done properly?
Use a cert with a correct subjectAltName, or a wildcard cert.
For future reference:

Assuming we have in the DNS the following RR:
foo     IN      A       192.0.2.11
bar     IN      A       192.0.2.12
ldap    1 IN    A       192.0.2.11
ldap    1 IN    A       192.0.2.12

Create certificate for foo:
subjectAltName=DNS:ldap.example.net,DNS:foo.example.net
CN=ldap.example.net

Create certificate for bar:
subjectAltName=DNS:ldap.example.net,DNS:bar.example.net
CN=ldap.example.net

I know that the subjectAltName type DNS is recommended, but RFC 4513
refers to type dNSName. Is there any reason that OpenLDAP requires
type DNS?

They are one and the same. "DNS" is just the way that it is specified in the OpenSSL tools.
