The funny thing is: /var/db/openlda-data/ is empty. I try to avoid
having problems when switching from FreeBSD 7.1-PRE to 8.0-CUR on this
specific box, I also switched from DB46 to DB47 (and back, as DB47 needs
a patch that is not officially out and held back until 7.1-REL gets out
of the box).

Even an 'out of the box' minimalistic after-clean-install
 try for starting slapd results in a crash immediately after I tried ...
I will check with KTRACE and hope it will show where it gets stuck.
