This (and many other recent threads) leads me to ask the question, why
doesn't openldap provide more reasonable defaults for bdb, if no DB_CONFIG

Uh oh, you are asking for trouble with this question :)

Read here:
http://www.openldap.org/faq/data/cache/1074.html

Think about it like this: what if openldap used MySQL as the backend, should it include
detailed instructions on how to setup MySQL? It could, but should it?

No, it shouldn't, but mysql comes with more reasonable defaults than bdb does....
