While it is correct that the reconfigure should get you a valid
ldap.conf file it does not necessarily fix the problem.  Specifically if
the ldap server referenced in ldap.conf is the local system the boot
will never complete.  The only way that I was able to work around this
problem was to reference a remote ldap server on the host line in
ldap.conf.  For example:

host 127.0.0.1 123.123.123.123

The one caveat to my examination of this problem is that the servers I
was testing with were running a custom build of openldap that was
started using a script in /etc/init.d.  It might be possible to start
the ldap server earlier in the boot process.   I haven't investigated
that yet.
