Yep - on my stable box:

jamin1@scorpion:~$ ldd /lib/libnss_ldap-2.3.6.so
        libldap_r.so.2 => /usr/lib/libldap_r.so.2 (0xb7f68000)

and testing:

jamin1@zeus:~$ ldd /lib/libnss_ldap-2.7.so
        libldap_r-2.4.so.2 => /usr/lib/libldap_r-2.4.so.2 (0xb7eeb000)

Again on a testing box:

jamin1@zeus:~$ id -a root
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)
jamin1@zeus:~$ id -a cmd1
uid=2130(cmd1) gid=5130(cmd1) 
groups=5130(cmd1),24(cdrom),29(audio),44(video),46(plugdev),106(fuse),50(staff),100(users),2231(kde-devel)

Doesn't seem to be related. I can't reproduce that error msg here.
