Sorry, but this is a libnss-ldap bug or a bug in your configuration. The pam_unix module checks the password field returned getpwnam() for the value 'x', and if found, consults the shadow database. If libnss- ldap isn't going to make the shadow database available, then it shouldn't refer callers there by returning this 'x' value. pam_unix is working as intended when it refuses access for a user configured this way.
