I forgot to address the "falling back to local files" part of your question
in my previous email.

The ldap relevant parts of my /etc/nsswitch.conf are
==========
passwd:         files ldap
group:          files ldap
shadow:         files ldap
==========

I have files first so that when there are problems with ldap (which
happens), root will be more likely to be able to log in since the local
files are checked first.

And while I was executing back-to-back "getent passwd" commands with
libnss-ldap version 238 installed, each command continued to return user
accounts that are only present in LDAP (and so could not have come from
local files).
