It may now be there on purpose but maybe it wasn't with 4.1 ?
(Please note the question mark)

My interpretation of Kurt's post with te .la files was "If they are there they 
are used in the OpenLDAP build process".

I know, my OpenLDAP is compiled this way.
(--enable-dynamic has been available for a long time)

As a side note: 
I am feeling a bit offended by your post which I consider quite harsh.
I only tried to give a possible explanation why BDB might be linked statically 
into slapd. I never claimed that it is the only possible cause.
